A chapter in People Management in Turbulent Times, 2009, pp 149-150 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Both primary and secondary school teachers report that parents now take a much greater interest in the precise nature of their child’s education than was ever the case 20 or 50 years ago. Even university lecturers find parents ringing them up wanting to know why their beloved son or daughter did not get a starred first.
