Gross, Ian – Journal of Research in International Education, 2023
Demand for elite English private schools overseas is increasing and their numbers have risen rapidly in the first two decades of this century.

Poole, Adam; Bunnell, Tristan – Journal of Research in International Education, 2023
A major development in recent years concerning the growth of 'private English-speaking international schooling' has been the transition from a 'traditional' mode of activity towards a 'non-traditional' context. This is especially the case in Asia, where the majority of international schools now reside. Moreover, we find that in Mainland China…

Bunnell, Tristan – International Studies in Sociology of Education, 2021
The well-established yet under-theorised body of 'Traditional International Schools' warrant much greater sociological analysis and inquiry as 'elite' educational institutions. This paper uses Basil Bernstein's "Sociology of the School" to discuss the 'expressive culture' of such schools, representing an idealised model of conduct,…

Díaz Beltrán, Ana Carolina – Curriculum Inquiry, 2018
In this article, I describe how a curriculum of dislocation produces subjectivities offered in discourses that centre "First World"/Eurocentric/developed subject positions through nation state frameworks.

Barakat, Maysaa; Brooks, Jeffrey S. – Journal of Cases in Educational Leadership, 2016

Gaudelli, William – Theory and Research in Social Education, 2013
Globalization has unleashed profound changes in education. These include positivistic international school comparisons, a singular focus on schools as drivers of economic development, and the adoption of neoliberal market principles in school.

Bunnell, Tristan – International Studies in Sociology of Education, 2011
The number of schools offering the programmes of the International Baccalaureate (IB) hit 3000 in July 2010.

However, there is now considerable concern about growth, especially within…
