摘要:I reflect upon the changing socio-economic contexts for the development of UK/British/English education policies for young people over the last 50 years. I do so from a feminist perspective and focus on the waves of development from social democracy through to neo-liberalism, and its current form as a crisis of capitalism and an age of austerity. There has been a changing trajectory for policies about young people and sexuality over the post-war period, from occlusion and invisibility to one in which young women's sexuality is now both the subject of a policy gaze and the processes of marketisation of sexualisation. Under the era of post-war social democracy, education policies developed in partnership with family policies: ‘the family-education couple’. The emphasis was not on the social or emotional development of young people, but rather on their educational opportunities. Under coalition government policies, in an age of austerity, developing from neo-liberalism of Thatcherism, young women in families are beginning to bear the brunt of policies of individualisation and sexualisation.
