Empirical research on secondary education reform in England from the viewpoint of School Diversity

本研究旨在探讨学校多样性对英国维持学校制度的影响。作为这项研究的结果，确定了三个突出的特征。首先，学校多样性在削弱社会凝聚力方面成为一个很大的问题。其次，学校的多样性使政府和学校的提供者就理想的维持学校系统应该是什么达成一致。第三，自从学校多样性开始以来，越来越多的人看到信仰学校自愿为教育的公共性做出贡献。针对这些特点，对英国中学教育改革的发展历程进行了梳理。

This study is to examine the influence caused by School Diversity with respect to maintained schools system in England. As a result of this study, three prominent features were identified. First, School Diversity became a great concern in terms of a weakening of social cohesion. Second, School Diversity allowed government and school providers to reach an agreement on what the desired system of maintained schools should be. Third, since the initiation of School Diversity, it has been increasingly visible that maintained faith schools voluntarily make a contribution to the public nature of education. In consideration of these features, the development of the secondary education reform in England was clarified.
