Nuanced interconnections of poverty and educational attainment around the UK are surveyed in this unique analysis. Across the four jurisdictions of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, experts consider the impact of curriculum reforms and devolved policy making on the lives of children and young people in poverty. They investigate differences in educational ideologies and structures, and question whether they help or hinder schools seeking to support disadvantaged and marginalised groups. For academics and students engaged in education and social justice, this is a vital exploration of poverty' s profound effects on inequalities in educational attainment and the opportunities to improve school responses.
Ian Thompson is Associate Professor of Education at the University of Oxford and Co-Editor of the journal Teaching Education. He is a leading member of the research group Excluded Lives. Gabrielle Ivinson is Professor of Education and Community at Manchester Metropolitan University. She co-ordinates the Creative Margins network exploring how to make arts accessible to marginalised young people.
