“…The framing of knowledge-creation as knowledge-production within the knowledge-economy is based on New Zealand Annual Review of Education ( 2023) 29: 59-74 DOI: https://doi.org/10.26686/nzaroe.v29.9462 63 the same tenets of extractionism, capitalism, and consumerism as neoliberalism.

Neoliberal influences on education policy have similarly supported input-output assumptions of PLD and have led to a narrowing effect. However, it is possible to open PLD up to be creative and subversive. If policy and procedure were to be decoupled, introducing greater flexibility, and refocused on the principles that underpin effective teacher PLD, then this creativity and transformation could be realised.
