Chinese students

Loud environment can lead to lack of concentration on studying, so they are less likely to remember what they have learnt as they cannot practice.

Supportive/unsupportive parents & their influence 

lack of nutritious diet means that students can’t concentrate as well in class as they don’t have the proper nutrition

poor living conditions so can become unwell and then don’t go to school

lack of resources
Relationship with parents/carers and siblings etc 

Parent knowledge - If a student’s parents have a lack of knowledge and education, they will not be able to get as much support as their peers

restricted code, Basil Bernstein-unable to understand them so when writing they will get a lower grade.

elaborate code, Basil Bernstein- pupils, who are typically middle and upper class and southern, have a larger range of vocabulary and speak in the way essays and exam questions are wrote. therefore benefiting them in education. ]]> 2022-10-19 17:06:13 UTC https://padlet.com/hmotara/mpd6i4x5xi7rh5tw/wish/2347446680 hmotara https://padlet.com/hmotara/mpd6i4x5xi7rh5tw/wish/2347447602 labelling
when given a negative label, students may think they’re defined by that label and won’t want to achieve better in school

self fulfilling prophecy- can change a student's belief and perception of themselves

ideal pupil- if they do not fit this model they're less likely to receive good labels from teachers, affecting achievement, more likely be given to a middle class pupil than a working class

school subcultures- working class boys form an anti school subculture where they respect the school’s values and become involved in antisocial behaviour within the school

Cultural deprivation (working class feel alienated within school)

Setting and streaming - being put in a set can limit their learning as they are only taught lower level things

teacher bias - teachers will favour pupils who r middle class, white and girls therefore people in lower classes will be forgotten about and will fall behind in education 

hidden curriculum 
usually favours the middle class while working class children are made to believe that they can’t go up in the hierarchy]]> 2022-10-19 17:06:43 UTC https://padlet.com/hmotara/mpd6i4x5xi7rh5tw/wish/2347447602 hmotara https://padlet.com/hmotara/mpd6i4x5xi7rh5tw/wish/2347448017 ball,

•studied a group of working class boys (lads) who rejected the education system and saw it as futile, mocking those who worked hard,
•They recognised that they were destined to low paid and skilled jobs, and so they mucked around as they sought gratification,
•they also sought high status masculinity by rejecting authority figures 
•Willis argued that they saw through to con of capitalism and the myth of meritocracy but were still exploited in the end.
