夥伴關係是英國中等教育近年來的施政主軸，政府試圖引進其他公私立機 構的力量，協助提供多元且全面的教育服務，讓學生與家長有更多選擇，達成 適性學習的目標。在2005 年以前，英國中等教育的夥伴關係是多元而分散的， 有許多獨立的方案與計畫，它們試圖糾結各方的努力，處理低學習成就、教師 同儕專業發展、學校重點學科的發展等議題。2005 年開始，新的「教育改善夥 伴」計畫出現，用來整合與取代先前分散的夥伴關係，成為各方合作的新平台。 本文旨在透過文件分析的角度，探索日益增加的英國中等教育夥伴關係，並以 政府推出的方案與計畫為探討對象，輔以個案分析，最後以英國當前的改革對 我國教育啟示提出建議與看法。研究發現，英國中等教育的夥伴關係具有豐厚 的政策論述內涵，明確指出公私夥伴關係的發展方向，以及採取「整全式」的 夥伴架構。

Partnerships have been one of the focuses in British secondary education. The UK government has intended to incorporate endeavours from a wide range of public and private institutions into the secondary schooling system with objectives of more diverse and comprehensive provision, arguably leading to better choices for students and parents and a personalised learning environment for individuals. Before 2005 the partnership framework in British secondary education was characterized by a lack of interconnection with a wide range of independent projects and programmes concentrating on separate issues such as underperformance students, teacher professional development and specialist schools. The'Education Improvement Partnership' endorsed by the New Labour Party was implemented in 2005 and used as a new operational framework to integrate and replace the previous initiatives. In reviewing relevant official documents, the aim of this paper, therefore, is to analyse the increasing partnership activities by focusing on the officially implemented projects and programmes supplemented by a case study from Derbyshire. The conclusion section is based on the secondary education partnership reforms in the UK and implications are draw upon them. Three main findings regarding partnerships in Britiain's secondary education are as follows: the thick and comprehensive policy discourse, the developmental direction of public-private partnership, and the adoption of holistic approach partnership framework.
