Evaluate the view that education reproduces ruling class ideology.

Introduction - Marxists sociologists argue that education… Whereas
Feminist and Functionalist would argue that Marxists are
wrong because education…
Paragraph 1 - Marxists argue that education reproduces ruling class
ideology (explain
- Althusser – ideological state apparatus
- Bowles and Gintis – correspondence theory/hidden
curriculum
- Paul Willis identified connection between shop-floor and
counter-school culture linking to correspondence theory –
actively resists ideology
- Eval: reproduction of values of society not ruling class it
benefits all individuals – social solidarity
Paragraph 2 - Functionalists argue that education reproduces value
consensus
- Durkheim – social solidarity e.g., History connects students
to culture
- Parsons – passing on skills, knowledge, universalistic
standards, and values to prepare them from society – e.g.,
free and fair examinations is not the methods of a ruling
class ideology trying to produce inequalities
- Eval: Marxists believe this meritocracy is a myth created by
ruling class ideology
Paragraph 3 - Marxists argue that Education is performed in a middle class
setting and so is designed to reproduce their ideas through
these same curriculum’s functionalists claim transmit
universal standards
- Social constructivists - Knowledge is constructed by
powerful groups who inflict their ideas, understanding and
values on others – curriculum and hidden curriculum made
to reproduce ruling class ideology
S.A. paragraph - The real question is whether Marxist views are still relevant today.
(problem with In a time before education reform acts, positive discrimination and
question/something the proliferation of subjects such as sociology in schools maybe the
different to be idea of a ruling class ideology seemed more realistic. Active
considered) challenge and removal by education system of certain things taught
in education. Can we still argue this when education teaches
Marxist perspectives to students?
Conclusion - Marxists believe in ruling class ideology, functionalists argue
common values and skills taught to benefit all
- Marxists argument is the strongest since ideas and values
linked to education do seem to undermine the values of
lower classes – competitiveness, individualism, inequality
being justified
- However only to a certain extent as it is becoming less
