Abstract
This paper explores some particular aspects of the privatisation of public sector education, mapping and analysing the participation of education businesses in a whole range of public sector education services both in the UK and overseas. It addresses some of the types of privatisation(s) which are taking place ‘of’, ‘in’ and ‘through’ education and education policy, ‘in’ and ‘through’ the work of education businesses. This entails a traversal of some of the multi‐level and multi‐layered fields of policy: institutional, national and international. Such an approach is important in demonstrating the increasing diversity and reach of some of the education businesses and their different kinds of involvements with different institutions and sectors of education. It also makes it possible to set local rhetorics, such as ‘partnership’, within the context of corporate logics of expansion, diversification, integration and profit.
