Gillborn and Youdall
-Say that marketisation gives Score a scope to select pupils
-This allows negative stereotypes to influence school admissions
Explain the AO2 of marketisation policies and selection.
-League table/OFSTED tell parents which schools are the best
-Open enrolment, I want to schools that they wish their child to go to

Explain the AO1 and AO2 of the Assessment game.
-when black students achieve on par to white students the rules of the assessment change
-For example a primary school change the baseline test to foundation stage profile in which it was a completely base of teachers opinion
-this causes black students to become underachievers overnight.
Evaluate The assessment game AO3
Sanders and horn
But students tend to do worse in subjects where the work is matched by teachers than compare to external exams
Explain the AO1 Of new IQism
-Teachers are able to decide who goes into high sets and gifted and talented programs this leads to discrimination against black students
-Gilborn says that teachers or policymakers make false assumptions of pupils nature and potential.
Explain the AO1 of ethnocentric curriculum
-Education gets priority to white culture and 10 to portray as superior to others
-The national curriculum does not have any ethnic minority history this tends to be extracurricular
Give examples of ethnic centric curriculum AO2
-English=White poets/authors
-History=British history
-Lang= languages European

-CONOLLY, note the interaction affect class gender interact differently depending on the ethnic group
-There’s a big difference in achievement between white middle-class and white working class compared to black class and black working-class

-MAC AND GHAIL, that teachers have radicalised expectations
-They believe that black students present more discipline problems and misinterpret their behaviour as threatening and challenging authority
-Black students believe that it is underestimate their abilities
-Expectations of black students alone so through educational triage they are systematically denied of top sets groups and tests which can lead to educational success
Evaluate radicalise expectations AO1
Fuller 
Explain pupil identity AO1
-Archer found that teachers have a dominant discourse which often leads to ethnic minorities being seen as a less ideal type
Give examples of pupil identity
Ideal type=White, middle-class, normal sexuality, masculine
-Have a good work ethic and natural talent
Pathologised identity=Asian,Deserving poor,feminised
-Would succeed through hard work and not natural talent
Demonised identity= White or black working-class, hypersexual, culturally deprived underachiever
> ethnic minorities are seen as pathologised or demonised
Explain institutional racism AO1
-discrimination which is built into the way institutions such as school and colleges operate
