Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Public education has changed dramatically over the years, and with it the job of the principal. But until now, no serious historical study in Canada has documented who principals are, what they do, and how their roles and public perception have changed over the decades.
Author Thomas Fleming plugs this hole in the historical record with his investigation into the evolution of the principalâs position in one particular jurisdiction: British Columbia. He sets his analysis within the wider context of forces that shaped public education and society as a whole.
Chronicling the years from 1961-2005, the second volume of this two-volume series shows how the principalâs role has changed in tandem with shifting legislative, economic, political and social landscapes. It was a period of immense transformation wrought by 1960s counterculture, increased immigration, watershed labour legislation in 1987 and the re-emergence of women in the principalâs office, among other influences. Fleming wraps up his landmark study with a warning about the future of public education. (2012-06-12)
