* Diversity and hierarchy amongst schools
* Parental criteria for choosing schools
* The differential impact on advantaged and disadvantaged families
* National and international variations in educational policies
* Rules and practices concerning school admissions
Implications for future research and for educational policy are highlighted and the final chapter provides an overview of key themes and issues. This book will interest all those involved in educational policy, researchers, students, headteachers and other senior managers in schools.
