White Middle-Class Identities and Urban Schooling - Identity Studies in the Social Sciences
D. Reay
This book examines experiences and implications of 'against-the-grain' school choices, where white middle class families choose ordinary and 'low performing' secondary schools for their children. It offers a unique view of identity formation, taking in matters like family history, locality and whiteness.
