About this book

Countering the commonplace view of teaching as inclusive, this collection highlights the persistence of inequalities in the teaching profession. It explores the ways in which gender, ethnicity, social class and other identity markers shape teachers' experiences in a range of institutional and national contexts.

Reviews

"Students, lecturers and researchers in the areas of gender studies and social justice would find this text a useful resource as each chapter provides a substantive reference list for further explorations." - Gender and Education
