ABSTRACT

This paper looks at the flexibilisation of teachers’ employment relations in England in the context of an accelerated deregulation of work and employment conditions and of educational provision. It brings to light a contrasted picture, where external flexibilisation, through the recruitment of unqualified teachers, seems to be contained by a mixture of diverse but convergent interests and norms from the State, teacher unions and employers. Meanwhile, forms of internal flexibilisation (regarding working time, pay, and job boundaries and workplaces) appear to be more pervasive. This raises fundamental questions about the meaning of ‘standard’ employment relations in the teaching sector.

摘要

本文着眼于在工作和就业条件以及教育提供加速放松管制的背景下，英格兰教师雇佣关系的灵活性。它揭示了一幅对比鲜明的图景，通过招聘不合格的教师来实现外部灵活性似乎受到国家、教师工会和雇主的各种但趋同的利益和规范的混合。与此同时，内部灵活性的形式（关于工作时间、薪酬、工作界限和工作场所）似乎更加普遍。这引发了关于教学部门“标准”雇佣关系含义的基本问题。
