Utopias – where do we go from here? Inspiring ideas for schools of tomorrow

Abstract

There are many definitions of Utopia. This chapter aims to aid reflection on Utopias and the ‘Schools of Tomorrow.’ It does not intend to give any final definitions nor commit to one theoretical framework. Instead, it invites the reader to embark on a journey of theorising and co-creating Utopia in educational spaces, within learning and teaching, reflecting on past, future and existing educational practice, philosophy and theory. Considering individual values, unique human perspectives and contexts, the chapter starts an exploration of the authors’ belief in inclusive education and, presents the authors’ idea that there are as many Utopias as there are people in the World
