Description

Explore a critical perspective on early childhood education with this Routledge research volume. This book examines the normative paradigm of school readiness, questioning its role as a necessary objective for all young children. Instead, the text presents the concept as a deficit-based practice that can lead to discriminatory classifications. Drawing on findings from a qualitative study, the author reveals how neoliberal school reform agendas and high-stakes testing can sort and label children as non-ready. This process has significant implications for their long-term schooling careers. The research provides a critical look at the connection between race and school readiness, examining how exclusionary measures can perpetuate systemic issues in the educational system. This is an essential resource for educators, researchers, and students interested in the sociology of education and the impacts of modern school reform.
