PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION ANDSOCIOLOGY OF EDUCATION
PSE4801
Assignment 4
2024
, Introduction
The study of education through sociological lenses offers diverse insights into the
complexities of school failure. This essay explores three prominent sociological
perspectives—Functionalism, Conflict Theory, and Interpretivism—to analyze the
roots of school failure as depicted in Feinberg and Soltis's case study (Feinberg &
Soltis, 2009). Each perspective provides unique viewpoints on the role of education
in society, offering contrasting explanations and implications for understanding
educational challenges.
Body of the Essay
Understanding the Perspectives
Functionalism posits that education functions as a societal institution crucial for
maintaining stability and social cohesion (Durkheim, 1956). Schools are seen as
agents of socialization, imparting cultural values and preparing individuals for their
roles in society. From this perspective, school failure may stem from inefficiencies in
fulfilling these functions, such as inadequate preparation for societal roles or
ineffective transmission of cultural norms.
Conflict Theory views education as a site of struggle and inequality, reflecting
broader societal divisions (Bowles & Gintis, 1976). Schools are seen as perpetuating
and legitimizing existing social inequalities through unequal access to resources,
biased practices, and differential treatment based on social status. For conflict
theorists, school failure results from systemic injustices embedded in educational
policies and practices that disadvantage marginalized groups.
Interpretivism emphasizes the subjective meanings individuals attach to educational
experiences (Denzin & Lincoln, 2018). This perspective values understanding the
unique contexts, interactions, and perceptions within educational settings.
Interpretivists focus on qualitative methods to uncover the nuanced reasons for
school failure, such as misalignment between school expectations and student
backgrounds, or socio-emotional factors impacting learning outcomes.
