Drawing on examples from primary and secondary academy institutions, a free school and Multi Academy Trusts, the collection explores how promises of academy policy are often at odds with everyday practice. Data and evidence throughout the collection highlight a multitude of ways in which the academies ‘experiment’ retrenches rather than reforms inequalities. Methodological insights and innovations are also a central feature of the collection, where authors interrogate what it means to collect and produce data in the current political context.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword – Diane Reay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: A time and a place: doing critical qualitative and ethnographic work across an academised educational landscape – Christy Kulz, Ruth McGinity and Kirsty Morrin \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart I - ‘Privatisation’: Positioning policies and publics: academies, governance and agency\u003cbr\u003e1 Academisation and the law of ‘attraction’: an ethnographic study of relays, connective strategies and regulated participation – Andrew Wilkins\u003cbr\u003e2 When the MAT moves in: implications for legitimacy in terms of governance and local agency – Helen Ryan-Atkin and Harriet Rowley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart II - ‘Practice’: Schooling the body and bodies in schooling: practice, strategy and the everyday\u003cbr\u003e3 Free schools, inclusion and social capital of children with special educational needs and disabilities – Clara R.
