This paper will identify and problematize aspects of the concept of ‘policy mobility’ (McCann, 2011; Cochrane & Ward, 2012) as a way of thinking about how to investigate globalising and globalised education policy. The paper will focus on education policies and policy arguments supporting school choice, and argue that these are part of a new landscape of globally mobile policies and ideas, that are leading to conceptions of choice and equity from local grassroots impulses and top-down from policy elites, including those connected to think-tanks and policy advocacy organisations.  The paper will posit that this new policy landscape perhaps requires new concepts to investigate and understand both the relational aspects – that is, how policy ideas are connected through global and local actors and advocacy organisations– and the territorial aspects – that is, policies and ideas as manifest in particular places as culturally focused schools along with the racialised politics of difference that are part of this territorialization.
