Summary
"Schooling and Equality argues that, despite apparent efforts to the contrary, inequalities in education persist and in places are becoming more acute. This book delivers a radical perspective on issues and notions of equality and inequality. On one hand, it aims to open a debate on just how greater equality in education systems can be fostered. On the other, it provides a valuable view and assessment of specific equality issues present in education today."--BOOK JACKET.
