Book Synopsis Family and School Capital: Towards a Context Theory of Students' School Outcomes by : K. Marjoribanks
Book excerpt: This book represents a major advance in examining the problem of how to reduce inequalities in the educational and occupational attainment of students from different socio-economic, ethnic and race group backgrounds. It integrates qualitative and quantitative research orientations and methodologies. A set of family and school measures is included that might be used by researchers and students as they examine the context theory, and by educators involved in school reform programs.
