The economic role | Schools are to meet the needs of the economy, and to teach students the skills and experiences required by industries in order to fulfill this. For example, in ICT, you are taught how to build a PC. |
The selective role | Schools allocate students to the jobs they're best suited to. For example, the best students get the best possible jobs, whereas less academically able students have less choice. |
The socialisation role | Schools teach people the norms and values of our culture. For example, in primary school, they teach the British norm of eating with a fork and knife, and a British value to respect people with higher authority. |
The political role | Schools teach people how to become effective citizens to create social solidarity (support across all people in the school) e.g. having good manners, discouraging racial discrimination etc. |
Social control role | Schools have rules that are for the good of all people. For example, when students do good, they will get rewards that encourage them to do better, whereas students that are bad get detentions to discourage them from being bad. |
The formal curriculum | Academic/vocational subjects that are taught as a form of qualification. For example, Maths GCSE, Sociology A level, IT Level 3 Diploma. |
The hidden curriculum | Things that you're taught within a school environment outside or beyond specific subjects. For example, peers may allocate you into your gender role, where they may make fun of you for taking e.g. a girly subject like Beauty when you're a boy. |
