Contribution
This paper explores how a government ‘desire’ for professional learning at Master’s level was promoted through partnership working which resulted in different ways of thinking about how Higher Education Institutions (HEI) engage in the provision of accredited professional education programmes for teachers throughout their career. The paper maps the relations that were created across spaces in the educational policy landscape from the inception of the policy imagining through to its enactment in practices. These spaces are occupied by a range of actors with differing values and demands, which are often in tension, since traditional concepts of work-place learning linked to Master’s level have been criticised as being rooted too firmly in the individual acquisition of skills which do not necessarily lead to organizational change. This paper uses a Deleuzian framework of desire to examine the complexity of this policy imagining, drawing upon evidence from a group of staff in a university and local authorities working in partnership to promote Master’s level professional learning.
