Whither Opportunity? PDF By:Greg J. Duncan,Richard J. Murnane Published on 2011-09-01 by Russell Sage Foundation As the incomes of affluent and poor families have diverged over the past three decades, so too has the educational performance of their children.

Engines of Privilege PDF By:David Kynaston,Francis Green Published on 2019-02-07 by Bloomsbury Publishing A rigorous, compelling and balanced examination of the British public school system and the inequalities it entrenches. Private schools are institutions that children who are already privileged attend and have those privileges further entrenched, almost certainly for life, through a high-quality, richly-resourced education. The Engines of Privilege contends that in a society that mouths the virtues of equality of opportunity, of fairness and of social cohesion, the continuation of this educational apartheid amounts to an act of national self-harm that does all of us serious damage. Intrinsic to any vision of the future of Britain has to be the nature of our educational system. Yet the quality of conversation on the issue of private education remains surprisingly sterile, patchy and highly subjective. Accessible, evidence-based and inclusive, Engines of Privilege aims to kick-start ...
