dc.description	The policy context for mother-tongue educators at all levels in England has been dominated by a matrix with four key elements, running along two spectra, one of learning (content-assessment) and one of teaching (autonomy-accountability). In each case the trend has been towards increasing external control and decreasing professional autonomy. Whilst some imposed changes have been recognised as intrinsically valuable, the majority are viewed as detrimental to teachers’ status and obstructive for students. The research community has been largely marginalised and has had little scope to influence proceedings. A rapidly developing crisis in teacher retention may yet reverse these trends as the government is forced to recognise the long-term implications of their treatment of the profession.
