"""This impressive volume exposes the many substantial injustices within an educational world radically altered by the pandemic. The contributors examine the ethics of the vulnerability of children to exclusion and provoke both discomfort and a determination to find new and better ways to educate our children."" --Julie Allan, Professor of Equity and Inclusion, University of Birmingham, UK ""This book is a ""must-read"" for anyone committed to educational justice and equity in our complex, uncertain, and altered world. The chapter authors show the pandemic as a moment of inflection and reflection, and offer ways to disrupt entrenched exclusionary practices of those deemed ""at risk"" or ""vulnerable"". Highly recommended!"" --Elizabeth Walton, Professor of Education, University of Nottingham, UK ""This book is critical reading for anyone with an interest in educational access and equity. It highlights the uneven educational impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic for children and young people - generally and in specific contexts. It is also relevant beyond the pandemic, given ongoing climate change and geopolitical instability."" --Vivienne Anderson, Associate Professor and Dean, College of Education, University of Otago, New Zealand"
