Full Description

Negotiating Change in the Process of Transition from School to Higher Education offers a powerful, continent‑wide examination of one of the most critical yet under‑supported stages in the educational journey. Bringing together leading scholars from Southern, Eastern, and Western Africa, this groundbreaking volume reveals the hidden dynamics that shape how students enter, navigate, and succeed in higher education systems marked by deep inequality, linguistic diversity, neoliberal pressures, and enduring colonial legacies.

Through empirical studies and theoretical insights, chapter authors explore the structural barriers that make transition into higher education a struggle, but also a process of identity‑building, resilience, and possibility. From rurality, multilingualism, disability, and psychosocial well‑being to admissions testing, COVID‑19 disruptions, and institutional culture, this volume reframes transition as a multidimensional, justice‑oriented process of becoming.

Rich, rigorous, and urgently relevant, this volume is essential reading for anyone working to build equitable and transformative higher education systems, across Africa and globally.
