About this book
Reviews
"This book provides a penetrating, moving and deeply sobering genealogical account of how some of the most vulnerable children in
society have been categorised, treated and ultimately excluded from education in the United Kingdom ... This book should be read by every person who works within the education system today and by every beginning teacher so that we can start to reclaim our human values." - Gabrielle Ivinson, Subjectivity
"Inequality, Poverty, Education is an inspiring and well-crafted book, which looks at the political economy of school exclusion through the lenses of Foucauldian genealogy." - Maria Tamboukou, Subjectivity
"Inequality, Poverty, Education has powerful, emotionally charged and intellectually compelling examples of working-class children
sent to the poor houses ... beautifully crafted." - Diane Reay, Subjectivity
"This is a penetrating, moving and deeply sobering genealogical account of how some of the most vulnerable children in society have been categorised, treated and ultimately excluded from education in the UK, but specifically in England and Wales... This is a book, for educational scholars of every hue and one that we should ask every beginning teacher to read." - EITN
