Black Pupils in a White Landscape: Reclaiming the Countryside for Enriched Learning Experiences
Moore, Helen
FORUM: for promoting 3-19 comprehensive education, v49 n3 p329-336 2007
This article focuses on the accepted identity of the countryside as a hegemonic, idyllic and stable environment. Making use of the experiences of a group of 25 15-year-old London students on a recent residential trip to the Dorset coast, it seeks to understand whether or not the countryside is seen as a "welcoming place" for inner-city children. (Contains 2 online resources.)
