The Politics of Differentiation is concerned with how schools can provide a more socially just education in the current policy context. The book explores the 'politics' of various forms of differentiation within and between schools, particularly in relation to social justice. We contend that spaces for social justice within classrooms, schools and broader education systems will be opened by a politics of differentiation that recognises context and seeks economic, cultural and political justice. Such politics will need to be continually questioned to proliferate new lines of thought and enquiry.
