"This book gives a voice to the residents of East Jerusalem, addressing educational issues and revealing implicit layers in Israeli policy and attitude affecting the education system. In this close examination of school life under occupation, the book presents criticism of the system from within, and calls for teachers to prioritise pupils' needs. Uncovering a complex daily reality experienced in schools by principals, teachers and pupils, it presents new findings, focusing on system-internal properties which manifest the macro effects inside the micro-system. The author draws on field studies and content analysis to show a need for educational action and suggest ample room for improvement"-- Provided by publisher.
