How class, race and gender affect the ways that children learn in school.

We have looked at some of the ways in which class, race and gender affect the achievement of children in schools, and how different researchers have studied these affects.  Having looked at some of the educational research, we then went on to interview young adults about their own school experiences, asking particularly about the ways that they felt class, race and gender affected their own achievements, and how, in their perception, the school viewed these issues.
