Download or read book The Pastoral and the Academic written by Sally Power and published by Burns & Oates. This book was released on 1996 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most widespread changes in secondary schools over the last thirty years has been the expansion and formalization of pastoral care. However, despite the considerable personnel resources invested in it, this tends to be a neglected area of curriculum theory and research. Through an empirically based analysis of pastoral care in the comprehensive school, this book looks at the history and discourse of pastoral care. Using data from two case-study schools, it explores the tense relationship between the pastoral and academic dimensions, and the significance of this tension for the educational identities of staff and pupils. In particular, it considers whether pastoral interventions empower students or represent more subtle forms of social control. In conclusion, the implications of recent reforms for the future of pastoral care within the comprehensive school are assessed.

Book excerpt: In times of great change and development in the education system, those children who experience difficulties in school because they are emotionally troubled are particularly vulnerable. Increasingly, schools are under pressure to produce results which appear good in the public domain, and so can feel forced to spend money on activities designed to enhance public reputation, consequently neglecting those pupils who are difficult to teach because they are emotionally disturbed.

Download or read book The Bloomsbury Handbook of Culture and Identity from Early Childhood to Early Adulthood written by Ruth Wills and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do children determine which identity becomes paramount as they grow into adolescence and early adulthood? Which identity results in patterns of behaviour as they develop? To whom or to which group do they feel a sense of belonging? How might children, adolescents and young adults negotiate the gap between their own sense of identity and the values promoted by external influences? The contributors explore the impact of globalization and pluralism on the way most children and adolescents grow into early adulthood. They look at the influences of media and technology that can be felt within the living spaces of their homes, competing with the religious and cultural influences of family and community, and consider the ways many children and adolescents have developed multiple and virtual identities which help them to respond to different circumstances and contexts. They discuss the ways that many children find themselves in a perpetual state of shifting identities without ever being firmly grounded in one, potentially leading to tension and confusion particularly when there is conflict between one identity and another. This can result in increased anxiety and diminished self-esteem. This book explores how parents, educators and social and health workers might have a raised awareness of the issues generated by plural identities and the overpowering human need to belong so that they can address associated issues and nurture a sense of wholeness in children and adolescents as they grow into early adulthood.
