Resource summary
NEW RIGHT PERSPECTIVES ON EDUCATION
new right
negative view of the state and its education policies
state can't meet the individual peoples needs
better off if they can meet their own needs through the free market
free market: privatisation state controlled: nationalisation (NHS)
similarities with functionalism
believe some people are naturally more intelligent than others
education is meritocratic
designed to serve the needs to the economy by preparing pupils for work
gives students a national identity
differences with functionalism
state run so can't meet individual needs
"one size fits all" schooling which degrades local needs so state schools are unresponsive and inefficient
schools can't answer to the consumers as they are state run, producing a less qualified workforce and a poor economy
education market
making education private
increases competition which allows the laws of supply and demand empower the consumer
creates a greater diversity, choice and efficiency as it meets the needs of the consumer
chubb and moe
american state education has failed and believe it should be free market
disadvantaged groups are mistreated by the state so it fails to promote meritocracy
privatisation gives a higher quality of education as they are answerable to the paying parents
parents given a voucher to allow them to pay for their school of choice
main source of income so schools are treated like businesses
evaluation
contradiction between support for parental choice then imposing a compulsory national curriculum on all schools
marxists say that it doesn't impose a shared national culture but they want them to have the same culture of capitalism
free market education only benefits the M/C as there's a cultural and economic capital to get the best schools
under achievements in state schools isn't due to state but wider inequalities in society
post modernists believe schools are constantly changing
role of the state
gives basic framework in which schools have to operate
produces a shared culture so they're socialised into single heritage
national identity must show british history positively, eg. christian worship
influence on government policy
1988 education reform act
new labour (1997) creating academy schools
parental choice with national curriculum, league tables and ofsted
puts pupils into competition with eachother
