Description

This critical examination of school readiness challenges the normative paradigm that positions it as a universally positive objective for young children. The book argues that school readiness functions as a deficit-based practice perpetuating discriminatory classifications within educational systems. Drawing on qualitative research findings, the author reveals how neoliberal school reform agendas rooted in high-stakes testing sort and label children as non-ready, with lasting consequences for their educational trajectories. The work offers a reflective analysis of the intersection between race and school readiness, exposing how exclusionary measures based on readiness assessments continue to disadvantage vulnerable populations. Published by Routledge as part of their Research in Early Childhood Education series, this book provides educators, policymakers and scholars with evidence-based critique of assessment practices and their real-world impact on children's schooling experiences.
