| Abstract | It is now widely recognised that Britain's comprehensive system was never truly comprehensive. Families with sufficient financial capital were always able to ensure the entry of their children to particularly prestigious 'comprehensive schools' by purchasing a home within the appropriate catchment areas. According to government rhetoric, recent legislation established a market of schools, removed catchment areas and gave parents greater choice of school. This case-study examines the workings of the local quasi-market of schools within a prosperous town.... [It] was first plunged into the market in 1992. This case-study shows that the new situation initially caused confusion and anger. Some residents were denied places for their children within the town and were instead offered places for their children in Birmingham working-class-estate schools. The article describes the formation and activities of a local pressure group which opposed these changes, and reports the results of a small-scale study of a sample of parents' choice-making processes in 1993. It is shown that access to financial and cultural capital had become more, rather than less, important in the process of allocating children to secondary schools. (DIPF/Abstract übernommen). |
