Managerialism and the professions: The case of school psychology in the 1990s
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 February 2016
Extract
The rise of managerialism in public administration over the last decade in Australia has had dramatic implications for schooling systems and for the school psychology profession. An overview of the character of managerialism and its impact upon public administration, and schooling in particular, is provided in this paper. The school psychology profession in Victoria provides the basis for exploring some dimensions of managerialism's impact. As part of a futures projection for the remainder of the decade, some broad suggestions are offered which argue the importance of both values analysis and strategy development for the school psychology profession.
