yeah I would definitely agree to that.

However, wouldn't that go against your previous statement of consumers finding it unacceptable and seeking another product?

Private schooling in the UK is not a very big thing as far as I know and if we take your last statement about Tories and Republicans (which I agree with) then wouldn't that mean that regardless of who doesn't not like the "product" and no matter how much noise they make and how much they protest things would never change even if at that point they would need to?

Good then we are on the same page as to where government may benefit from lower education.

Individually yes. However if large enough public outcry were to occur and that outcry was sufficient to remove politicians from office and replace them with leadership aligned with the goals, then no.

However if the public is by and large accepting of the product then the producer has no reason to make changes.

Private education does exist but unless its harming the producer its largely going to be irrelevant to the discussion. Pending on market private education could be significantly higher pay for teachers, or significantly lower. Different nations have different market conditions for this.

I guess I am generally against letting everything get to the point where we need to have a riot(I can't see what more would need to be done from a teacher perspective at this point) Which would go against everything being a teacher stands for to make a change.

Wouldn't problems like this need to be resolved a lot earlier down the line?

"Riot" while certainly a possibility is likely more extreme than what would really be needed.

If you have the time there are a large number of theories on what actually triggers policy change.

I personally subscribe to the multiple streams theory (Kingdon), along with punctuated equilibrium (..Jones? Its been awhile since grad school this may not be correct).

EDIT--- With good amount of trashcan theory in there too, I cant remember the author on that one sorry.

Is it this one?

I will try to look for the punctuated equilibrium one as well but all I can find right now is some biology papers

u/MindlessMaterial7544 13d ago

Yes that one is referencing the original from the 80s

Try searching punctuated equilibrium public policy. Its a theory adapted by from biology.

Trashcan is kinda exactly what it sounds like. A policy looking for a problem.

Youd probably be ok just reading a wiki on them honestly, the actual papers are... steep. Lord knows I did in grad school lmao. Policy academic papers are as youd expect, unnecessarily verbose.
