Biography
Simon Probert is currently the Executive Principal at a British school in China, having recently completed his doctorate examining perceptions of internationalism in British international schools. During this research, he has published a number of papers, most notably on the changing international education market in Asia.
'This book offers a fascinating, timely, and compelling investigation into the growth and development of a significant phenomenon that has largely escaped critical attention. Using personal insights as well as a wealth of relevant academic literature, it offers a deep dive into the growing demand and supply conditions of the British Satellite College.'
Tristan Bunnell, Senior Lecturer in Education, University of Bath, United Kingdom
