Wendy Poole

Associate Professor
Department of Educational Studies (EDST)

Dr. Poole’s work focuses on the impacts of neo-liberal education policy on K-12 schools, collective learning and organizational change in schools, teacher unionism, and intersections among these issues. She has contributed to knowledge related to: the complexity of teachers’ unions as organizations and teachers’ union resistance to neo-liberal education policy; and the impact of neo-liberal education policy on organizational justice in schools and funding of public schools.
