| Abstract | Corporate school reformers like to call themselves just "reformers" and counterpose themselves to the "status quo." There is no doubt that the corporate/foundation crowd has successfully captured the media label as "education reformers." However, this political branding has little to do with reality or the substance of the issues under debate. Like many others who oppose corporate school reform, the author has spent years criticizing the flawed institutions and policies of public education as a teacher, an education activist, and a policy advocate. "Rethinking Schools" has been pressing for radical reform of public education and for student-centered, social justice education since it began 25 years ago. But with debate about education policy now sharply politicized and polarized, there are added reasons to look beyond the rhetoric. Examining closely what the corporate education reform movement proposes and what it actually delivers can help expose where it is vulnerable to the most hopeful development of the last two years--the steady growth of a deep, broad, and at times quite militant pushback against the corporate reform agenda. The failures of the corporate education "reform" movement leave it vulnerable to genuine grassroots school transformation. In this article, the author takes a look at what corporate reformers have actually achieved when it comes to addressing the real problems of public education. The author also offers a quick survey of 10 hopeful, tangible signs of growing resistance to the corporate reform agenda. (ERIC). |
