Chubb & Moe (1990) |
Argue USA state schools have failed their goals and should be placed in ‘Free Market’. Compared 60,000 pupils from low income families in 1,015 state schools & private schools plus a ‘parent’s survey’. •State education had failed disadvantaged groups & failed to create equality of opportunity. •Pupils not being equipped with skills needed to work this economy is failing. •Private schools are more efficient & productive as have answer to their clients - the paying customer. |

Gewirtz (1995) |
Marketisation benefits middle class & disadvantage the working class • New Right ignores wider social inequalities in education & place blame on schools themselves. • New Right want parents to have choice & freedom but want a strict curriculum in place - contradictory. • Marxists argue schools don’t transmit a shared culture, only upper class culture (dominant). |
