As Goodson helpfully comments, teachers within the secondary school work in a subjectbased culture that is underpinned by a significant historical legacy. This can lead to fundamental differences of opinion about what should be taught within a particular subject, how it should be taught and how it should be assessed. Jephcote and Davies give a flavour of the complexity of the situation by picking up on Goodson’s notion of the ‘teacher as actor’; someone who has to work within different contexts or levels in order to present the subject as a meaningful ‘whole’ within the curriculum: Changing the curriculum is an outcome of contexts between actors in different arenas and at different levels.
