Privatisation and Commercialisation in Public Education explores how publicness is being redefined through the restructuring of nominally public school systems, with competition, choice, and autonomy becoming entrenched vectors of reforms. It examines the impact of these agendas in different educational contexts across the USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand, parts of Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, and India.

The process of privatisation and commercialisation in public education has been a significant trend in recent decades, as governments have sought to redefine the nature of publicly-funded school systems. These reforms have aimed to introduce competition, choice, and autonomy into the education system, which have become entrenched vectors of these changes. This edited collection examines the distinction between privatisation and commercialisation and explores the diverse effects of these policy reforms in different educational contexts.
Many countries have approached the challenges of school choice and school autonomy in distinct ways, and this book investigates the impact of these agendas across the USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand, parts of Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, and India. The book brings together contemporary, international perspectives from renowned policy academics on both privatisation and commercialisation in public education systems, with a focus on how the 'public nature of schooling is changing.
This is an essential read for those interested in understanding the implications of current education policy reforms on the core educational practices in public schooling. The book provides valuable insights into the complex dynamics of privatisation and commercialisation in public education and their potential impacts on students, educators, and society as a whole.
