Abstract
The Left is facing a crisis of its approach to education highlighted by the 'education revolution' of the Coalition Government. The authors argue that it is important to step back and present a positive vision of education based on the key pillars of the Good Society - fairness, democracy, sustainability and well-being. This values-led agenda, whilst offering an opportunity to take the moral and philosophical high ground, will also present a number of difficult strategic questions.
