Reform and Convergence in School Education: International Perspectives
Joanna Le Metais
Although policy documents indicate that there are three main patterns of educational review (predetermined cycles, continuous review programmes, and ad hoc reviews) it is clear that most education systems are subject to constant change. Moreover, international comparisons suggest that there are converging approaches adopted by groups of countries as they face common challenges and seek to prepare their young people to work and live within a global economy. This chapter explores the stimuli for educational reform, identifies areas of change, and raises some issues. It concludes by highlighting a harmonising trend, whereby European countries appear to be relinquishing some of their sovereignty with respect to education, in the interest of collective economic competitiveness.

Seeking a New Education Paradigm for Teaching and Learning: Achieving Education for Sustainable Development
Victor Ordonez; Rupert Maclean
In all communities and societies, education (and often formal schooling) develops, which seeks to meet the needs of the individuals and groups living in the society concerned, so facilitating skills development for life and work; and helping individuals and groups to fit into the society in question. Education systems do not exist in social and economic isolation, but function to meet the particular needs of a particular society at a particular time.

Navigating Culture and Context: The Principalship in East and South-East Asia
Allan Walker; Phillip Hallinger
A dominant aspect of the current educational environment in East Asia is the multiple education reforms which have assailed schools since the early 1990s. Another is the long-held cultural values that principals embrace as part of a broader social group and which underpin the construction of personal, societal, relational, and organisational norms and behaviours. Reform demands and cultural values converge at the school level to shape a constantly shifting environment. The associated fluidity of this environment, in effect, expresses principals’ lives and work to form and transform what they do. As this process unfolds, principals find themselves navigating an unpredictable path to school improvement and the very meaning of leadership becomes confused (Bottery, 2004). This context challenges principals to construct a new role that is personally authentic and which attends to the core values of stakeholders, community needs, and system requirements.

Improving the Participation of Disadvantaged Students in Post-Compulsory Education and Training: A Continuing Challenge
Joan Abbott-Chapman
The early 1980s were a time of great expansion and structural change in Australian education, when Hughes and his research colleagues at the University of Tasmania began their influential longitudinal cohort study of the post-compulsory education, training, or employment careers of 14,000 Tasmanian students who completed Year 10 in 1981 and 1986 (Abbott-Chapman et al., 1986a, b, 1987, 1989, 1991, 1992). Rising public expectations of the role of education in society and a desire by government to develop the “human capital” of the nation to meet the expanding economy’s growing demand for graduates, had characterized the 1960s and 1970s.
