摘要:This paper sets out to report upon the findings of a case study of an ‘innovative’ school in England. Specifically, the research focusses upon the way in which the school has engaged with the neoliberal policy context in which increased autonomy and diversification of provision is promoted in England as a driver of standards. Using Bourdieu’s conceptualisation of symbolic capital, the findings suggest that within this autonomous system, ‘innovative’ localised policy-making can arguably misrecognise the role such ‘innovation’ plays in helping to maintain structures, which may contribute to ensuring the field, and its competitive nature, is protected rather than challenged.Keywords: autonomy; innovation; England; symbolic capital; misrecognition(Published: 3 July 2015)Citation: NordSTEP 2015, 1: 28652 - http://dx.doi.org/10.3402/nstep.v1.28652
