Description

Explore a provocative study that challenges common assumptions about the modern family and its connection to the school system. This Routledge Library Edition examines how home life circumstances influence academic success and the relationship between the home and educational institutions. Instead of viewing the modern family as being in decline, this work presents its history as a success story. The text describes the family as a stable and emotionally potent unit that has developed its own distinct role over the last three centuries. It examines how the family functions as a private entity that can exert significant pressure on young people to achieve success within the school system. This book is an essential resource for those studying the sociology of education. It provides a deep look into the social dynamics that shape how children interact with both their families and their schools. Readers will gain a new perspective on the pressures of modern upbringing and the evolving structure of the domestic sphere in relation to broader society.
