Authors: IJ Oosthuizen, JP Rossouw, A de Wet, MC Rossouw
Format: Physical Hardcopy
Introduction to education law demonstrates that in a world overflowing with information, there is room for work constructed by experts with a wealth of knowledge and experience. It undoubtedly achieves its aims and outcomes and goes beyond them to offer an accessible wealth of knowledge that is relevant to anyone who wishes to understand the theory and practice of the governance, management and regulation of education.
Of specific importance in this new edition is the inclusion of the legal framework and implications for early childhood development (ECD). For those with a professional interest, it provides an expert introductory analysis of the fundamental principles that impact their role. It is clearly written, and the authors are to be congratulated for their skilful work in extracting the key issues from such a complex area.
