Re-framing student academic freedom: a capability perspective
No full textThe scholarly debate about academic freedom focuses almost exclusively on the rights of academic faculty. Student academic freedom is rarely discussed and is normally confined to debates connected with the politicisation of the curriculum. Concerns about (student) freedom of speech reflect the dominant role of negative rights in the analysis of academic freedom representing ‘threats’ to academic freedom in terms of rights which may be taken away from a person rather than conferred on them. This paper draws on the distinction between negative and positive rights and the work of Sen (1999) to re-frame student academic freedom as capability. It is argued that capability deprivation has a negative impact on the extent to which students can exercise academic freedom in practice and that student capability can be enhanced through a liberal education that empowers rather than domesticates students

'Sorry to have kept you waiting so long, Mr Macfarlane': Further education after the Coalition
No full textThis chapter focuses on the further education (FE) sector in England. Initially it gives an overview of the ‘condition’ of the FE sector and summarises of some of the main characteristics of the current Government’s approach to further education. The chapter locates the Coalition’s position on FE, and some of the key initiatives associated with this stance, within a broader social, economic and cultural context, before turning to the future of further education. Whilst I acknowledge that much will need to be done across all sectors of education after the Coalition loses power, it is argued that no one part of the education system – if indeed system is the correct term – operates in isolation; and that FE’s role and remit is strongly influenced, not only by the nature of the labour market and the economy more broadly, but by the relative status and position of universities, schools and other providers of education and training. Drawing on the ideals of the comprehensive movement and some of the recommendations made in the first draft of the often forgotten Macfarlane Report, the remainder of the chapter provides a vision for further education after the coalition by arguing that FE needs to be repositioned at the heart of a coherent system of tertiary education and play a key role in integrating academic with vocational learning. It finishes by offering a critical overview of the far-reaching cultural, structural and curricular changes that would be required, not only within the further education sector, but across other parts of the compulsory and post-compulsory education system, in order to enable this
