摘要

本文采用案例研究的方法，描述了历史，并考虑了一种创新的混合学校模式的成功，该模式旨在改善牙买加金斯敦市中心获得优质初等教育的机会。它审查了入学机会、学生成绩、非学术问题和2019冠状病毒病的挑战。它借鉴了个人经验和Chetolah Mel Nathan教育中心的实证研究数据，该中心是最近由金斯敦市中心的Mel Nathan预备学校和Chetolah Park小学合并而成的。这两所学校的合并导致了与预科学校精神相关的更高的愿望和成果，以及政府资源的范围。虽然这种特殊的混合模式取决于牙买加的独特情况，但它指出了在牙买加、更广泛的加勒比地区和更远的地方进行联合生产的更普遍的潜力。

The best glass? Equitable access to quality education in inner-city Kingston, Jamaica

Using a case study approach, this paper describes the history and considers the success of an innovative hybrid school model aimed at improving access to quality primary education in inner-city Kingston, Jamaica. It examines access, student achievement, non-academic issues and the challenges of COVID-19. It draws on personal experience and data from empirical research at the Chetolah Mel Nathan Education Centre, a recent merger of the Mel Nathan Preparatory School and the Chetolah Park Primary School in inner-city Kingston. The merger of these two schools resulted in the higher aspirations and outcomes associated with the prep school ethos, along with the range of government resources. While this particular hybrid model depended on a unique situation in Jamaica, it points to the more general potential for co-production in Jamaica, the wider Caribbean and further afield.

期刊介绍： Environment and Urbanization aims to provide an effective means for the exchange of research findings, ideas and information in the fields of human settlements and environment among researchers, activists and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in low- and middle-income nations and between these and researchers, international agency staff, students and teachers in high-income nations. Most of the papers it publishes are written by authors from Africa, Asia and Latin America. Papers may be submitted in French, Spanish or Portuguese, as well as English - and if accepted for publication, the journal arranges for their translation into English. The journal is also unusual in the proportion of its papers that are written by practitioners.
