new right perspective on education
favour the marketisation of education
increasing competition
brings more choice and diversity of school
A03
competition between schools benefits the m/c, who can use their cultural and economic capital to gain access to desirable schools
favour an education system run on meritocratic principles, believe that education should socialise pupils into shared values
argue that the state education takes a 'one-size fits all' approach - parents and pupils have no say and therefore schools are unresponsive
believe the school system has failed
consumer choice
state system has failed because it has not created equal opportunity and has failed the needs to the disadvantaged
A03
low educational standards is not due to state control but state inequality and inadequate funding of state schools
private schools deliver higher quality education because, unlike state schools, they are answerable to paying consumers - the parents
propose a system in which each families would be given a voucher to spend on buying education from a school of their choice
more responsive schools as vouchers are schools main source of income
