Contributing to the shaping of education and migration as a distinct field of research, this forward-looking Research Handbook explores cross-cutting questions on the range of challenges facing education systems, migrant children and students today.
Covering an impressive range of local, national and educational contexts, this Research Handbook explores diverse case studies, educational initiatives, approaches and policies that have been developed to support migrant and mobile students, educational professionals and schools. Chapters offer a broad understanding of the multifaceted nature of global migration today, exploring varied theoretical and methodological perspectives, and examining the educational challenges and opportunities presented by migration. The Research Handbook ultimately stresses the importance of interdisciplinary research into the complex phenomenon of global migration and its impact on education systems and the educational trajectories of migrant children.
Students and scholars in the fields of education, migration, childhood studies and globalization studies will find this Research Handbook an invaluable reference. Its wide range of case studies on different educational provisions designed to support migrant children in schools will further benefit educational practitioners and policymakers.

Critical Acclaim
‘This superb Research Handbook could not be more welcome. The emergent field of migration and education is handsomely illustrated in the exemplary, original research represented here. Despite investigating so many diverse national contexts, the chapter authors concur that migration of children and youth is today enriching, disrupting and reshaping educational systems globally in ways that demand our attention. By addressing the challenge of inclusivity from various angles, they engage critically with policy discourses around the right to education, identifying implementation problems especially where national/local hostility occurs, whilst highlighting transformative agendas associated with the presence and voices of migrant youth, whether in schools or higher education. All education practitioners and researchers need to ingest the messages contained in this Handbook, to look at their own assumptions about migration and to address, politically and pedagogically, the exclusionary Othering and potential alienation of the millions of displaced or migrant young people in the world today.’
