This paper examines, as a case of a possible shift from the neoliberal agenda, recent changes of education policy in England where transformation of the culture of education from competition to collaboration is being encouraged by the Labour Government. After considering the nature of globalization basing on distinctions drawn by Ulrich Beck concerning globalization, globality and globalism, the paper defines that the neoliberal ideology dominating the world today as globalism. It also examines the characteristics of the neoliberal agenda focusing on the relationship between the individual and the state. It points out that, while the neoliberal agenda have strong momentum, there have been strong criticisms on them in terms of problems concerning equality and equity related to social class and of deterioration of true education culture by the penetration of the competitive culture in the education market. Then, the paper considers of educational policies of the New Labour Government in England in which the idea of collaboration and partnership has been increasingly emphasized in recent years and looks at the advocacy of the idea of personalisation by the Government. It concludes that at the policy level the Labour Government seems to be very serious in transforming the culture of education with collaboration placed at the core of the education system.
