Ensinar a "cidade" no ensino básico
Authors: Esteves Maria Helena
Published: November 2016

Este artigo procura analisar o estudo da cidade nos actuais programasde Geografia e nalguns manuais escolares em vigor. Com a reorganização curricular daGeografia verificamos que, agora, a dimensão mais valorizada, é o desenvolvimento decompetências essenciais e menos a memorização de conteúdos. Os novos manuais escolares editados vão responder ao desafio de fazer uma Geografia capaz de contribuir paraa formação de cidadãos geograficamente competentes. O estudo da cidade continua afazer parte importante do novo currículo da Geografia, mas verificam-se poucas altera-ções em relação aos conteúdos que eram abordados antes da reorganização, pelo menosnaquilo que se refere à forma como os manuais escolares abordam este tema.
Detecção Remota e Sistemas de Informação Geográfica para produção de cartografia de uso e ocupação do solo
Authors: Rocha Jorge
Published: November 2016

The main purpose of this research is to develop and validate an efficient form of satellite image classification that integrates ancillary information (Census data; the Municipal Master Plan; the Road Network) and remote sensing data in a Geographic Information System. The developed procedure follows a layered classification approach, comprising three main stages: Pre-classification stratification; Application of Bayesian and Maximum-likelihood classifiers; Post-classification sorting. Common approaches incorporate the ancillary data before, during or after classification. In the proposed method, all the steps take the ancillary information into account. The proposed method achieves, much better classification results than the classical, one layer, Minimum Distance and Maximum-likelihood (ML) classifiers. Also, it greatly improves the accuracy of those classes where the classification process uses the ancillary data.

Os compêndios escolares de Geografia no Estado Novo: mitos e realidades
Authors: Claudino Sérgio
Published: November 2016

During the period of the New State, the authors of Geography manuals for the first years of schooling ignored the elimination of the subject from the curricula, dictated in the 1930’s. In the high schools, there was a set of contradictory legislation and an uncontrolled production of Geography textbooks, but in the mid-1950’s, an official textbook of Geography, conceived by important school teachers, was approved. The authorities regarded school textbooks as learning aids, which should therefore have a lot of illustrations, elements of research and short texts – which washardly recognizable in the published textbooks. In the end of the 1960’s, a period of free publishing, a new cycle begin.
Abandono escolar: repercussões sócio-económicas na região Centro. Algumas reflexões
Authors: Caetano Lucília
Published: November 2016

Although the educational level of the population has improved considerably over the last decades, Portugal still lags far behind the other European countries. Premature school drop-out, along with high retention rates, appear to be the main reasons for this. Consequently, Portugal is the EU country with the largest percentage of workers with low educational levels, and the Central Region of Portugal is the one with the least favourable record. Indeed, in spite of the positive evolution egistered among the youngest, it is still disturbing to find that only 27.1% (61.8% in the EU) of the economically active young peoplebetween the ages of 15 and 24 finished their secondary education or pursued vocational training and that 3% did not even finish the first cycle of basic education. This situation inevitably hinders the formation of human capital, prevents the expansion of productivity and curbs the competitiveness of the productive fabric,as well as economic growth.
Que fronteiras para a UE?
Authors: Cavaco Carminda
Published: November 2016

This article addresses the identity of Europe, the project and process of the construction of Europe, the successive enlargements and the mobility of external borders from the perspective of a Europe of variable geometries. It attempts to develop the discourse on the “return to Europe” for the Central and Eastern European Countries (CEEC), their movement towards democracy, their difficulties in entering the global market, EU assistance and new development dynamics. Then, the new enlargements for the short-term up to the Adriatic and the Black Sea, with the next countries to be admitted being Romania, Bulgaria and Croatia. Other notes are made on the possibility of other enlargements in the medium- to long-term, by setting the external borders farther to the East, towards Russia and the Caucasus, and to the Middle East, towards Turkey, and to the South, towards North Africa, countries that have a certain “desire for Europe”. The EU attracts with its status of post-modern empire, and it is necessary for Europe to stabilize and modernize its peripheries, without calling into question the EU’s project and with prejudice to strengthening the integration process.

A geoestatística como ferramenta de estudo da batimetria na vertente continental portuguesa
Authors: Machado Pedro Bordalo , Sousa António Jorge
Published: November 2016

GEOSTATISTICS AS A TOOL FOR THE STUDY OF BATHYMETRY ON THE PORTUGUESE CONTINENTAL SLOPE. The increasing interest on deep-water resources by the commercial fishing fleet during the last 20 years led the Fisheries Research National Institute (presently INIAP-IPIMAR) to conduct seafloor topography studies, which aimed the identification of potential fishing grounds for deep-water species in the Portuguese continental slope.The present study lies in the scope of the above topography studies. The spatial variability of the seafloor depth from a particular area of the Portuguese continental slope off Figueira da Foz with about 665 sq. m. was investigated. A geostatistical analysis comprising spatial continuity, several estimation methods and its uncertainty was conducted. The sequential gaussian simulation method was applied to evaluate estimation values uncertainty.Residual kriging yielded the lower estimation errors. The higher uncertainty observed in the estimation results obtained by Ordinary Kriging suggests that the geostatistic model to be adopted for the study area should be non-stationary. However its implementation is more straightforward since it has less requirements. Based on the estimation and simulation results two digital maps were constructed for the study area, one on the bathymetry and the other on the trawl fishing uncertainty.
Aspectos metodológicos da utilização de Data Mining no âmbito da Geografia
Authors: Bação Fernando Lucas , Painho Marco
Published: November 2016

METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF USING DATA MINING IN GEOGRAPHICAL WORKS. At the start of the new century, geography finds itself in a very interesting position. After various developments made towards the end of the twentieth century mainly due to the rapid progress in the field of computation, geographers now face a new challenge: geospatial data mining. Geospatial data mining could be the key with which geography achieves the scientific objectives at the basis of the quantitative revolution. It is true that most of the opportunities that have enabled geography to grow have originated outside the discipline; it is also true that geographers have always had the intelligence and vision to rapidly adopt those innovations in the practical work of their profession. The quantitative revolution and Geographical Information Systems are important steps in the search for knowledge about space and spatial-temporal patterns, which are of enormous complexity.A new generation of tools has emerged and grown indispensable to anyone concerned with mastering complexity in any field of knowledge. These tools make use of the huge resources and dimension of today’s databases and have ever-growing processing power as their main ally in establishing an inductive approach capable of solving problems far beyond the reach of theoretical formulations. Nevertheless, in order for these tools to contribute to the essential theoretical development of geography, it is necessary to adopt an appropriate methodological framework and escape pure inductive logic. Accordingly, a Popperian epistemological framework is proposed, in which the conjectural activity of the researcher is the core of the scientific work.

A paisagem revisitada
Authors: Domingues Álvaro
Published: November 2016

BACK TO LANDSCAPE – Natural landscape in classical geography wasa coherently constructed and universally acknowledged central concept and unquestionably part of geography itself. Hot debate that arose from recent epistemology in geography nearly brought this heritage to an end and even accused it of acting as a brake on the urgent need for scientific renewal. As an old saying goes, what we throw out through the door comes back through every window and not always in the best manner: for some, it is a simple return to the past, although it also poses an external threat to geography’s highest achievement; for others, the impression is that someone has overtaken us in this constant toing and froing that has split the field of geography. However, we maintain that this sudden interest in landscape opens up to us new domains for reflection and investigation, which is, as it was in the past, enriched by the plurality of meanings it embraces. After examining other disciplines (such as aesthetics, anthropology, landscape ecology, and architecture landscape), we return to geographical landscape with the aim of showing a fresh way of looking at things and the new possibilities this concept opens.

Evolução da paisagem de montado no Alentejo interior ao longo do século XX: dinâmica e incidências ambientais
Authors: Ferreira Denise Brum
Published: November 2016

EVOLUTION OF THE MONTADO LANDSCAPE IN THE INNER ALENTEJO DURING THE 20TH CENTURY. DYNAMICS AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES – This paper presents the general context within which the montado landscape changed in the inner Alentejo during the 20th century as well as some of the environmental consequences, such as soil degradation and modification of the local climate. In large areas nowadays abandoned, the landscape dynamics depends more on environmental limitations created by soil degradation that on purely socio-economical factors.
Identificação de Unidades de Paisagem: metodologia aplicada a Portugal Continental

IDENTIFICATION AND CHARACTERISATION OF LANDSCAPE IN PORTUGAL –This paper presents the concepts and methodology used in the study «Identification and characterisation of landscape in continental Portugal» undertaken by theDepartment of Landscape and Biophysical Planning of the University of Evora for the General Directorate for Spatial Planning and Urban Development (DGOT-DU) at the Ministry of the Environment and Spatial Planning, between 1999 and 2001. On the one hand, the methodological approach developed is based on the methodologies used recently for the same purpose in different European countries and on the way landscape has been considered in various European documents in the last years. On the other hand, it is also based on the team’s concern to approach the landscape as an holistic entity, and to examine its various components: ecological, cultural, socio-economic and sensorial. The set aim has been to define landscape units and to characterize these units in relation to the present landscape and the recorded trends, related problems and possibilities. Thus, the cartography relative to selected variables has been combined and related to satellite images and field surveys. The results of cross-referencing all this information has than been combined with expert examination of landscape coherence and character within each unit. The assessment was completed after careful bibliographic research and consultation with regional experts. The result is a flexible approach that combines objective analysis with a more subjective assessment, which the team considered fundamental for a true understanding of landscape.
Les ressources de territoires et les territoires de ressources
Authors: Benko Georges , Pecqueur Bernard
Published: November 2016

economical geography has known a revival since the 1990s; we even speak of a «new economic geography». Globalisation, metropolisation, the formation of free-trade zones, international exchanges, the linking of the global with the local are all themes at the centre of the concern about spatial economy. But globalisation does not necessarily mean homogenisation of the spaces. The notion of territory reappears in economical analyses because territories offer the market resources that are specific, untransferable and incomparable. These specific resources render the areas diversified and stabilize the emplacement of economic activities. In the next few years, one of the main subjects of research in economic analysis will probably be the study of the process of revealing and eveloping new resources that emerge from the uniqueness of the areas and human groups in a context where information logic controls the service economy.
Desenvolvimento de um microerosómetro do tipo TMEM para aplicação em plataformas rochosas litorais

Published: November 2016

DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION OF A TRAVERSING MICRO-EROSION METER FOR SHORE PLATFORMS – The study of the shore platforms specific environmental conditions requires accurate equipment to measure erosion rates. In this paper, the construction details of a Traversing Micro-Erosion Meter (TMEM) is described. This TMEM adds some improvements to previous devices that aim to increase the data set collected, both in quality and in quantity. The installation and measurement procedures are described, as well as the advantages and limitations of this equipment. An experimental survey was carried out within the tidal range of the limestone shore platform of Tombadoiros, in a sector of the Portuguese western coast. For a 96 days period in the autumn/winter of 2000/2001, the mean rate of erosion at the site was 0,153mm/year. However, this result includes disturbances associated with the settlement of the black lichen Verrucaria maura in 58 % of the measuring points. It was found that the mean rate of erosion in the clean rock surface was 2,5 higher when compared to the area colonized by the lichen.

ACIDITY OF PRECIPITATION IN THE IBERIAN PENINSULA – Acidity of precipitation in the Iberian Peninsula between 1986 and 1997 is studied in this paper. The main objectives are the analysis of its variability, seasonal cycle, and trend. The results show a higher acidity of precipitation in Portugal than in Spain, although precipitation is acid in both countries. In general, the pH variability is lower in Portugal than in Spain. In both countries there is a seasonal cycle with a clear minimum in summer and a maximum in winter. The trend analysis shows a pH that is increasing in Portugal and Spain, except at Noia station where the observed trend is decreasing.

A Reserva Ecológica Nacional (REN): sua importância para o ambiente e ordenamento do território
Authors: Pereira Ana Ramos , Ramos Catarina , Laranjeira Manuela
Published: November 2016

THE NATIONAL ECOLOGICAL RESERVE (REN): ENVIRONMENT AND MANAGEMENT IMPLICATIONS. The National Ecological Reserve (REN) defined in Decree-Law 93/90 of March 5th is the «basic and diversified biophysical structure that guarantees environmental protection, through the creation of restricted areas» at rish through erosion (littoral or slope), flooding and aquifer recharge. The REN valuation, whose main aspects are referred to here, was carried out by means of an analysis of Municipal Master Plans (PDM) and a survey sent to all local authorities. As it was impossible to analyse the PDM of every district, a dis- trict differentiation was completed based on the biophysical index (Fig. 1 and 2), subsequently crossed by the district human pressure to obtain the district spatial differentiation of the environmental strain (Fig. 3). This allowed a standard district to be selected where the REN was analysed in full detail (Fig. 4 to 9). The survey allowed for the evaluation of the main conflicts in other districts between the REN and the goals of the PDM to be assessed, including the issues concerning the delimitation and the way the REN is seen by the councils and the citizens. The REN includes physical and biophysical systems (slope, fluvial, aquifer and littoral) that tend never to coincide with the administrative divisions. It is urgent that a national network be created of REN areas, planned and managed through more integrated means and an inter-municipal collaboration that can only be effective if environmental education is promoted, on both formal and informal terms.
Circulação de ar na península de Tróia e costa da Galé
Authors: Neto Carlos Silva
Published: November 2016

AIR FLOW OVER THE TRÓIA PENINSULA AND THE COSTA DA GALÉ – In the summer, the Portuguese western coast is characterised by an evident dominance of north and northwest wind directions. Due the influence of the Arrábida mountain, the north wind suffers a deflection and blows from the west, southwest or even south over the Tróia Peninsula, where in the summer months there is a high frequency of wind directions between west and south. This deflection is much more frequent and better marked at night than at daylight. At daylight the strong north wind is channelled through a valley between Palmela hill and the Louro mountain and frequently blows over the Tróia Peninsula, in directions between north-northeast and north-northwest. At night, north and northwest wind speeds are generally lower and west and south winds blow all over the Tróia Peninsula towards Carvalhal, as result of the deflection caused by the Arrábida and Cabo Espichel. The wind directions between west and south, frequent at night on the Tróia Peninsula, are also intensified by the difference of temperature between the cool ocean and the warm water of the estuary.

Contrastes térmicos nocturnos e acumulação de ar frio em áreas urbanas do Sul da Península de Lisboa
Authors: Lopes António
Published: November 2016

NOCTURNAL THERMAL PATTERNS AND COLD AIR LAKES IN THE URBAN AREAS OF THE SOUTH OF LISBON PENINSULA - A methodology based on a GIS (Idrisi) is presented in a study in orther to recognise some nocturnal thermal patterns in anticyclonic nights in the south of the Lisbon peninsula. A multiple regression model was used to evaluate which topoclimatic variables are responsible for the thermal variation. The results are presented in table I and figure 5. The areas with high probability of ocurrence of cold air lakes during clear and calm anticyclonic nights were identified. It was estimated that 35% of these suburbs are in the areas where cold air lakes can occur. Night temperatures in the valleys, occupied by urban areas are, on avarage, 1ºC lower than in all the other areas. This leads to an increase of disconfort and cunsumption of energy because these areas have been densely developed and populated in the last decades and the buildings are not usually prepared for cold conditions. Several maps are intended to contribute to the urban planning of Lisbon peninsula.

1520 kb Culture, innovation and periphery: a theoretical sketch and some evidence from different portuguese contexts
Authors: Henriques Eduardo Brito
Published: November 2016

The present paper tries to look at the culture-innovation nexus in periphery. Starting with a theoretical discussion on this issue, in which the role of culture in current capitalism is analysed, we raise the question whether the increasing imporance of culture in the present economic context has been creating new opportunities for peripheral regions to innovate, namely by the valorization of tradition.The paper will highlight the results of four case studies from the handicraft pottery sector. These achievements will then be confronted with an exemple of cultural political promotion in an urban area - Lisbon'94, European Cultural Capital, in order to unravel the political logic of cultural and innovation in the periphery. The final section provides a brief conclusion, placing emphasis on the ambivalences which characterise peripherical modernisation processes and their cultural dimension. We argue that the ability of periphery to sustain development strategies based on the valorization of tradition depends primarily upon a successful management of these ambivalences.

Lisboa, Metrópole policêntrica e fragmentada
Authors: Salgueiro Teresa Barata
Published: November 2016

TRENDS OF POLICENTRISM AND FRAGMENTATION IN LISBON - In this paper, we study the transformations of the spatial organisation of the Lisbon Metropolitan Area. The main focus is on the present restructuring dominated by three main processes. Firstly descentralisation of housing and economic activities, secondly development of new centralities, high status areas with very good accessibility and great attractivity, mainly occupied by office buildings or mixed-used developments (offices, retail, hotel, luxury apartments) in the inner city or close to new suburban highways; and, finally, selective gentrification and re-use of the central city, either by high income housing or modern services.The evolution outlined can achieve the replacement of a strong centralised metropolis with uequal distribution of employment and services between metropolitan core and suburban rings by a new multicentered structure. This evolution goes along with the transmition from the industrial to the post-industrial city that brings fragmentation of the socio-spatial structure with a juxtaposition of territories. In the economic sense the city loses its functional unity made of interdependent spacialised territories. In the social sense this reflects the rise in the number and differentiation due to the increase of opportunities and choices once the position in the labor market is no more sufficient to define social position and people look for and build their identification through goods, places and their symbols.
A Geografia da indústria de lanifícios na União Europeia
Authors: Pires Iva
Published: November 2016

THE GEOGRAPHY OF WOOL TEXTILES IN THE EU - In the wool textiles, unlike cotton, the competition comes mainly from other industrialised countries. The textile specificity, normally produced in small quantities, incorporating design and frequently adapted to fashion, prevents mass consumption. On the other hand the need of qualified and skilled workforce prevents the relocation to countries that can only offer low wages. Thus the EU maintains its world leading position as wool textile producer, the dominant role belonging to Italy, Germany and France. Another important feature is specialisation of these countries in a specific segment of the wool "filière". In the last years the flows of wool products among the EU countries has been growing and theystill trade mostly among them. Consequentely, the productive space has become more cohesive with a simultaneous reinforcement of the centre-periphery model.

Património geomorfológico no Litoral Sudoeste de Portugal
Authors: Pereira Ana Ramos
Published: November 2016

GEOMORPHOLOGICAL PATRIMONY ON PORTUGUESE SOUTHWEST COAST - Within the scope of environmental concerns that challenge mankind, namely the management of biodiversity and the preservation and conservation of landscapes, the aim of this paper is to define the geomorphological patrimony and the establishment of geomorphological ways. Landscapes are here regarded as the spatial expression of the interaction between biophysical and socio-economical componets that form the environmental system. In the case of the Portuguese Southwest, the geomorphological component of the environmental system is assumed to be structuring element of the present landscape. In this sense, geomorphological patrimony is taken as a set of landforms (soils and correlative deposits) with clear scientific interest by their genetic and degree of preservation characteristics, by their rarity and/or originality, by their degree of vulnerability or moreover by the way they are connected in terms of space. Such landforms deserve to be preserved.The Portuguese Southwest includes a protected by law area (Protected landscape area of Southwest of Alentejo and Costa Vicentina, set by the Decree-law nº241/88 June 7). It keeps a quite diversified and rich geomorphological patrimony, generally well preserved, in a mainly rural area (fig.1). Its geomorphological evolution is the result of the continental and sea planation, as well as tectonic events, and it is a good example of the coastal landscapes evolution (figs.2,3,4). We therefore propose the creation of spacial protection ways, geomorphological ways (with geomorphological sites with particular interest), on the strength of their scientific interest, and also because they are the record of the landscape evolution and their environmental conditions (fig.5).
Cheias e escassez de água no Alto Alentejo. O exemplo da Bacia Vertente da Ribeira de Tera
Authors: Ramos Catarina
Published: November 2016

FLOODS AND DRYNESS IN ALENTEJO. THE CASE OF THE DRAINAGE BASIN OF RIBEIRA DE TERA (PORTUGAL) - The drainage basin of Ribeira de Tera belongs to the Hydrographic Basin of the River Tagus, and it is located in one of the driest areas of Portugal: Alentejo.The geological formations of the drainage basin have a very reduced permeability, resulting in drastically worsening of the consequences of low and irregular rainfall. The drainage basin is much affected by the dryness, since the rainfall is absent during more than 3/4 of the days of the year and, for more than half of the years (58%), the precipitation does not even reach 700 mm/year. Every stream of the drainage basin is therefore temporary, including its main channel, which stays dry an average of 133 days/year.The early 70's mark a change in the stream's behaviour. The fluvial discharges have been decreasing, and the drought continues throughout the Autumn. The number of flood days is decreasing distinctly, but the flood's magnitude has increased, due to the decrease of floods with low peak flows. These changes in the fluvial regime are directly connected with the precipitation decrease trend and with the construction of dozens of small-sized dams in an attempt to retain the water for irrigation and for the cattle. These small-sized dams are empty by the end of the Summer and they retain the water from the small Autumn floods.The carbonated metamorphic formations occupy 4% of the area of the drainage basin. They constitute its aquifer reservoir. These rocks, together with the volcanic metamorphic ones, supply 65% of the springs of the drainage basin. This aquifer is exposed to great anthropic pressure, not only because it supplies several human activities which develop around the most important population nucleus of the drainage basin (City of Estremoz), but also because it supports one of the rare industries in the region: the marble extraction.From the environemental point of view, the activity of the quarries has a rather negative impact, because it is destroying the only aquifer reservoir in a region very poor in water resources (either superficial or underground); from the economical and social points of view, the decrease in quarry activity is almost unthinkable due to the value of the marble exported as of ornamental rocks and, mainly, because it is one of the rare industries in a region facing severe unemployment prloblems.

REAL ESTATE NEW PRODUCTS AND URBAN RESTRUCTURING - In the first part of the paper we present the new products of Lisbon urban landscape (luxury housing and office buildings). We point out that the new buildings break the traditional form of the city production in several ways, from their scale to the use and the location pattern they present. Besides, they also contribute to the creation of new centralities in the urban space.In the second part we try to understand the new trends identified. After reviewing the main theoretical approaches to the process of urban transformation, we look at the economic changes more relevant to explain the recent development of a busy market for office space and high standing housing that woks in a world-wide scale. They seem to be the tertiarization trend and the new role of estate investment in capital valuation combined with increased facilities in the circulation of the capital. We finish with the question of the position of the cities under this internationalization of the real estate markets.

Estilos fluviais num ambiente semiárido, bacia do Riacho do Saco, Pernambuco
Authors: Souza Jonas Otaviano Praça , Barros Ana Clara Magalhães , Correa Antonio Carlos de Barros
Published: November 2016

O crescimento da preocupação ambiental tem aumentado a necessidade de adoção de políticas de gestão de recursos hídricos. A compreensão das características e comportamento dos ambientes fluviais é essencial para uma gestão apropriada, em especial nos ambientes secos, primordialmente ambientes instáveis. O objetivo desta pesquisa procurou identificar e descrever os estilos fluviais da bacia do riacho do Saco, semiárido do Nordeste Brasileiro, e analisar o comportamento de cada estilo fluvial. Para tanto foram usados dados ASTER GDEM, imagens QUICKBIRD e dados de campo, para identificar os elementos e características dos estilos fluviais. Na bacia do riacho do Saco foram identificadas quatro unidades de paisagem: área de cabeceiras, zona inundável, escarpa de falha e pedimento; as características desses compartimentos irão controlar os estilos fluviais, conjuntamente com os impactos antrópicos. Foram identificados sete estilos fluviais, entre eles canais de voçoroca na área de cabeceira, desenvolvidos em colúvios quaternários; canal preenchido na zona inundável; canais encaixados na zona de escarpa de falha; canal rochoso com planície de inundação descontínua na área pedimentar. A partir da identificação e caracterização dos estilos fluviais, a adoção de uma política para gestão dos recursos hídricos torna-se mais adequada.
International human rights, citizenship education, and critical realism
Authors: Alderson Priscilla
Published: November 2016

Citizenship education invokes dilemmas even for the most committed teachers and students, researchers, and innovators. How can citizenship education advance equity and equal rights within highly unequal schools and societies? How can it support young people to feel they have the competence,
confidence, and right to vote and to challenge injustice? How can we be sure international human rights are realities, not merely passing ideologies? This paper argues that rights really exist as expressions of visceral embodied human needs and moral desires that are integral to human relationships.
Rights also serve as powerful legal structures that can help to prevent and remedy wrongs, and they work as enduring high standards and aspirations. The paper suggests how critical realism can help educators to resolve dilemmas in theoretical education about rights as knowledge, principles,
and mechanisms, and in practical education that enables students to enjoy and exercise their rights and respect those of other people.
An assessment of the English and maths skills levels of prisoners in England
Authors: Creese Brian
Published: November 2016

Although the direct links between education and reducing recidivism in prisoners are problematic, there is little argument that education is a factor in promoting reintegration and rehabilitation. There is a current focus in prison education on education for employment, and yet there
are no recent or unambiguous data about the skills levels of the prison population. The most often quoted figures are both 15 years out of date and deeply flawed in terms of their comparisons with the general population. This article sets out a new study that takes the mandatory initial assessments
carried out on every new prisoner between August 2014 and July 2015 and compares them with the national Skills for Life survey conducted in 2011. This provides us with some hard facts about the English and maths skills of the past year's intake of prisoners. The conclusions argue that while
the numeracy skills of prisoners are better than previously understood, the cohort has extremely poor literacy skills, and addressing these needs should be a priority for government.
