Skolutveckling i en yrkesutbildning - frirum mellan styrdokument, skola, arbetsgivare, studerande och politisk styrning

A Head of a vocational educational program should set up activity goals for the school organization in order to improve it. The Aim of this Study is to search for needs for improvement in a quality perspective. Semi structural interviews with a teacher, a student, an employer and a representative for political governance and deep study of political documents is the empirical platform for the analysis. To interpret the material the “Free-Space model” by Gunnar Berg (2003) is used in combination with the “Driving-Force model” developed by the Danish pedagogue Christian Helms-Jørgensen (2006). The study is a case study and the conclusion couldn´t be generalized But it is indicated that a deeper dialogue is needed between the actors to create an equal picture of the education. The main differences in approaches are.1)The vision of the work with equality and multicultural perspectives2)The Definition of the Professional role3)The Definition of what Quality in Education isIt is also indicated, as Researcher earlier have shown, that this professional sector is influenced by a strong culture that can counteract new knowledge and definitions.To reach increased validity in this educational programme deeper studies in this differences of definition can form a platform for improvement. A Method for make a dialogue possible between the actors in order to create an equal picture is to establish a forum where policy documents, definitions, exams and development can be discussed. Another Method to improve the equal picture could be to, with communication actions, show the values that the actors are asking for.
