The Teaching Nation: Prospects for Teachers in the European Community

How will Europe's teachers face the challenge of 1992? What are the prospects for the teaching profession in Europe in the Single Market? These are some of the questions tackled in this study. Based on interviews with leading educationists and decision-makers from the European Community and drawing on the latest research findings, The Teaching Nation looks at changes across Europe that affect the teacher in his or her daily work, and which determine the changes in the relationship with the public and with government. It also looks at the issues posed by policies of recruitment, how the teaching body is facing up to demands of social and economic change, and how it is placed in a Europe-wide perspective. The Teaching Nation provides an account of current developments of essential interest to teachers, those engaged in research, students, and the general reader who wishes to know more about one of Europe's central professions.Neave, Guy is the author of 'The Teaching Nation: Prospects for Teachers in the European Community', published 1992 under ISBN 9780080413815 and ISBN 0080413811.
