The author explores the current and projected growth of international schooling, focusing on schools with a global outlook located outside English-speaking countries and delivering a non-national curriculum partly in English. He argues that a new era of unprecedented growth will occur and considers the driving forces behind it. He discusses current and projected growth figures, the historical context, definitions, and other aspects of international schooling; the characteristics of the emerging new era in international schooling; demand and supply-side factors driving growth; and emerging issues of this new era.
