Improving Education Policy Together aims to transform the way educational policy-making is approached in England by highlighting the importance of relationships and showcasing alternative models that lead to more sustainable and effective practices. The authors analyze the current state of educational policy-making in England, focusing on the interactions between policy-makers, civil servants, unions, and the wider world. They draw on their own experiences on different sides of the process to explain why education policies often fail to serve the sector they are intended to serve. By examining policy-making in different countries, the authors identify more effective ways of building relationships between decision-makers and those affected by educational policy. The book explores long-term, systems-led, and relational policy-making and presents a range of unique models for change. It is of interest to those involved in developing and influencing policy in government, political parties, unions, civil servants, charities, teachers, and leaders who believe they should be more influential in the policies that affect their working lives and seek to adopt a better approach to making education policy.
