Lisa Mckenzie – FORUM: for promoting 3-19 comprehensive education, 2024
Higher education should be a social good for everyone and, despite the intentions of university policy on inclusion and diversity with schemes on widening participation, the truth is that for working-class students, university is still a place where they encounter prejudices and feelings of exclusion.

Brenda C. Straka; Analia Albuja; Jane Leer; Kaelah Brauher; Sarah E. Gaither – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Children's socioeconomic status (SES) is linked to disparate access to resources and affects social behaviors such as inclusion and resource allocations. Yet it is unclear whether children's essentialized view of SES (i.e., believing SES is immutable) or subjective social status (SSS) influences behavioral biases toward high- versus low-SES peers.…

This paper explores how middle-class mothers' involvement in and how the meanings of a public school choice are shaped by the class differences in cultural capital and economic capital between the mother and father within one family.

Drawing primarily on social identity theory (SIT), this study investigated how U.S. parents' (N = 569) comfort with their children's potential intergroup…

Ayhan Aksakalli – Journal for Critical Education Policy Studies, 2025
This article explores how Third Way policies have weakened class consciousness in education and how a Marxist model of education offers a powerful alternative to this weakening.

Xian Zhang; Yuanchao Wang – Asia Pacific Journal of Education, 2025
Gender differences in non-cognitive abilities are important in explaining the "female advantage" in education.

Rachel Louise Stenhouse; Nicola Ingram – British Journal of Sociology of Education, 2024
In this article we make an argument for the importance of embodied cultural capital in the generation of class advantage through private school students' access to Oxbridge. Private schools in England continue to reproduce advantage (Variyan 2019), however, establishing exactly how students are advantaged through private schooling is not…

Sujata Noronha; Beena Choksi – Contemporary Education Dialogue, 2024

This project worked closely with a…
