Curriculum Policy in Perspectives. Curriculum Policy Making: A Study of Teachers’ and Policy-makers’ Perspectives on The Gambian Basic Education Programme

      Аннотация: This book has made great contributions in the history of curriculum policy making in The Gambia – a former British colony. The book pools together curriculum concepts and theories as well as education policy literature including the issues of globalisation and national policy, especially how the international agencies influence national policy making in the world. It shows, for example, that while global influences are profound on the development of strategic education policy, the national and local effects are stronger than the global impact and has more influence on the operational curriculum policy. The lecturers and students of education, especially those specialising in curriculum and policy studies; national and international policy makers, educational planners and curriculum developers will particularly find the book useful.
