Description

The Language of Schooling examines how language functions within educational settings, highlighting the significant differences between formal school English and the conversational language students use socially outside the classroom. This Routledge publication provides a detailed linguistic analysis of curriculum challenges, particularly for non-native English speakers, students using non-standard dialects, and those with limited exposure to academic language before entering school. By drawing on sociolinguistic and discourse-analytic research, the book explores how language variety affects learning outcomes and communication in educational contexts, making it essential reading for educators, linguists, and anyone interested in understanding the relationship between language use and school success.

Key Features

The Language of Schooling compares formal school English with social language use outside educational environments, revealing key differences in vocabulary and structure.

This Routledge book addresses specific challenges faced by non-native English speakers navigating academic language demands in school curricula.

The text examines how speakers of non-standard dialects experience barriers in formal schooling contexts and their linguistic implications.

Academic language exposure analysis helps educators understand why students with limited exposure outside school struggle with curriculum demands.

Built on sociolinguistic and discourse-analytic frameworks, the book applies established linguistic research to practical schooling problems.
