Education reforms have been on the political agenda for many years. Earlier with several years between reforms, in this century each day seems to bring a new educational reform – some would say that there is no reason for calling it reforms anymore. What is going on is continuous change
or, as some scholars prefer, it is about
modernization processes.
New perspectives have influenced education
reforms, societal trends like the market- and
customer-approach, the autonomy of schools, and
the outcomes orientation and focus on
competence. Later flexibility, open access to
education, quality assurance, transparency and
accountability were introduced as policy
instruments to ensure that the citizens (and
society) got what they paid for.
