Providing fascinating reading for teachers, social workers, researchers and policy makers, this book considers how educational disadvantage might be addressed through recognition of the gender and class identities of pupils.
Rising exclusion rates indicate the continuing marginalisation of many young people in education in the UK. Working-class boys, children living in poverty, and children with additional/special educational needs are among those experiencing a disproportionate rate of exclusion. This book traces the processes of exclusion and alienation from school and relates this to a changing social and economic context.
Jean Kane argues that policy on schooling, including curricular reform, needs to be re-connected to the broad political pursuit of social justice, and presents compelling case studies of excluded pupils, showing the multi-faceted identities of pupils, with a particular focus on masculine and feminine identities.
This invaluable contribution to the literature offers an alternative analysis where the social identities of pupils are shown to be tied up with their exclusion from school. Themes investigated include:
the meanings of school exclusions
social class, gender and schooling
social identities of excluded pupils
negotiating identities in school: moving towards exclusion
exclusions and young people’s lives
improving participation in schooling.
