Christina Easton: Teaching Values Whilst Respecting Difference, Gebunden

Klappentext

In this book, Christina Easton defends, from a democratic / liberal perspective, education policies that seek to promote liberal values such as tolerance and equality through school education.

The chapters cover a range of education policy issues including the requirement that English schools promote "British values", liberal civic education, pluralist liberalism, religious education, harmful student speech and classroom discourse and discussion. Significant attention is paid to disputes in the UK and the USA over whether schools should teach positive attitudes towards LGBTQ+ people.
