Synopsis

The link between a child’s background and their chance of success at school and in later life is known to be strong. But it is not the determining factor–schools can and do make a real difference. This book describes a range of effective projects in schools and the principles underlying good practice.

Chapters consider: issues of social class; issues relating to ethnicity, gender and disability; special educational needs; a project on language; and modifying teachers’ expectations.
