Description
Primary education in crisis pulls together the wealth of research on health, poverty, resources, language and teaching as factors in academic achievement in reading, writing and mathematics. At the centre of the book is an analysis of the published studies that sytematically document what teachers teach and fail to teach, and why it is that teaching is at the heart of the crisis in primary education. The author suggest that there are no quick fixes, but only hard choices and that, for reform to succeed, it must be evidence-based.
