The network of Politics of Education and Education Policy Studies had 7 paper sessions and two symposia in Copenhagen 2012. In the Reykjavik conference 2013, the corresponding numbers were 10 sessions and three symposia . Thus, the network is a healty big and growing. With the rapidly changing politics and policy of education, we can expect to have many interesting sessions and papers in the future. Relation to our sister network in EERA should and could be worked upon as there are promising opportunities for collaboration, and a current collaboration option might be funding for network activities.
