Positioning Amartya Sens capability approach at the heart of the study, each chapter considers documentary evidence alongside ethnographic research from rural, remote and under-resourced schools in Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa and Sudan. Interweaving rich narratives from teachers in a variety of contexts, the book proposes a concept of professional capability and examines female teachers agency to pursue and achieve this in their classrooms. This key examination challenges existing notions of quality education and reveals insights into the broader purpose of schooling for rural communities.
