Resumen del Recurso
The Role of Education, Functionalism and the New Right
Functionalism
A consensus approach
Durkheim
Social Solidarity
o make people feel the are part of a single "body" or community. School transmits society's culture and acts as a "society miniature" to prepare kids
Specialist Skills
Modern industrial economies have a complex division of labour where even the production of one item may involve the co operation of many specialists.
Education teaches individuals the specialist skills they need to play their part in the social division of labour
Parsons
Learn unversalistic Standards
Teaches children that in society that we are all viewed as the same and we all have the same rules
Teaches Shared values of society
Shows that status is achieved not ascribed. You can change your status depending on how hard you work
Facilitates Meritocracy
The idea that everyone has the same opportunities
Davis and Moore
Assessing children to how they act, their abilities ect. school helps assign them to the job they are most suited to
Criticisms
There is evidence that equality of opportunity does not exist either in school or society, achievement is influenced by class, ethnicity ect.
The New Right argue that education does not teach the specialist skills needed in society as some school subjects show limited usefulness in work
The New Right
They share the functionalist view that some people are naturally more talented than others and so favour a meritocratic school system
However they do not think that the current system does this because it is run by the state
They argue the state uses education to impose their own views and impose a one size fits all education system
Chubb and Moe
Argue state education has failed to create equality of opportunity
They propose the marketisation of education by giving parents vouchers to spend on their choice of school, making it the schools main source of income
The role of the state
The state imposes the framework for schools in which they must compete e.g. league tables
The state should also transmit a single shared culture by imposing a single national curriculum and so oppose multi cultural education
Criticsms
In rural areas there are no opportunities for a market as there is no other schools to go to
The real cause of low educational standards is social inequality and not state control
Marxists argue the single national identity is the culture of the dominant R/C
