Working Class Girls, Education and Post-Industrial BritainAspirations and Reality in an Ex-Coalmining Community /[electronic resource] :by Gill Richards. - 1st ed. 2018. - X, 99 p.online resource. - Palgrave Studies in Gender and Education,2524-6445. - Palgrave Studies in Gender and Education,.

Chapter 1. Introduction -- Chapter 2. What do we know about girls’ aspirations and achievement? -- Chapter 3. Methodology -- Chapter 4. Aspirations and expectations -- Chapter 5. Achieving aspirations: what did the girls do? -- Chapter 6. What else can schools do?.

This book explores the aspirations of 'working class' girls' in an ex-mining community in the UK. It highlights the difficulties present in these 'post-industrial' settings, which are often areas of severe deprivation, and questions whether these place limitations on the achievements of the girls within the community. Based on an eight-year longitudinal study of girls in three primary schools and two secondary schools which differed in levels of attainment, the book examines the girls' initial aspirations, decision-making, and later achievements when in post-compulsory education. It will be compelling reading for students, academics and practitioners in Education, offering a unique appreciation of how working-class girls balance their own aspirations with the educational opportunities perceived to be available to them.
