在1959年的克劳瑟报告中指出，“委托进行的广泛研究证实了早先关于父亲职业地位与学生受教育程度之间关系的发现。”父亲的地位越高，孩子上语法课而不是现代中学的机会就越大，尽管“熟练体力劳动者”这一职业群体如此庞大，以至于他们的孩子是所有类型学校中人数最多的一个群体。有人认为，这是相当大的人才“浪费”，很多人关注的是15岁离开学校从事工艺或技术而不是学术职业的学生的“被忽视的教育领域”。”麦金农等(1995:23)。父母的社会阶层已经成为内边界在家长参与孩子的教育,有些人相信,如果你是在一个较低的社会阶级,你更有可能失败,退出和学习成绩不良,因为对他们的期望是什么,还有些家长从较低社会阶层可能会吓倒那些父母从一个更高的社会阶层。根据道格拉斯(1964)的观点，“工人阶级的父母不重视教育。对子女教育最感兴趣的家长主要来自中产阶级。来自较低社会背景的父母可能没有接受过良好的教育，所以他们没有技能来帮助他们的孩子。此外，来自较低社会阶层的父母可能没有时间工作来帮助他们，因为他们需要钱生活和供养他们的孩子。另一个界限是性别。“性别”一词指的是男女之间的差异。多年来，性别一直是教育中的一个大问题，在17和18世纪，女孩的教育水平相当低，但在19世纪中期，当所有儿童都有权上学时，女孩的教育水平有所提高。在17和118世纪，教育只针对富有的男孩和年轻的男子，他们是唯一允许上学的孩子，而女孩和年轻的妇女必须呆在家里和他们的母亲，做家务和照顾他们的家庭。当女性被允许上学时，她们不被允许学习课程中的许多科目。他们不得不学习针线活等。
澳洲教育学代写论文:学生受教育程度
In the 1959 Crowther Report it states “that the extensive research that was commissioned confirmed earlier findings about the relationship between fathers’ occupational status and pupil’ educational attainment. The higher the father’s status, the greater the child’s chance of attending a grammar rather than a secondary modern school, though the occupational group ‘skilled manual workers’ was so large that their children were by far the largest single group in all types of school. It was argued that there was considerable ‘wastage’ of talent and much attention was paid to the ‘neglected educational territory’ of pupil who left school at 15 to follow craft or technical, rather than an academic career.” Mackinnon et al (1995:23). Parent’s social class has become a boundary within parental involvement within a child’s education, it is believed by some that if you are in a lower social class, you are more likely to fail, drop out and underachieve because that’s what is expected of them, also some parents from lower social class may feel intimidated by those parents from a higher social class. According to Douglas (1964) “working class parents do not value education. Parents who are most interested in their children’s education come mainly from the middle classes”. Parents from a lower social background may not have received a good education so they do not have the skills to help their children. Also parents from a lower social class may not be able to afford to take time of work to help out, as they need the money to live and provide for their children. Another boundary is gender. The words ‘Gender’ refers to the differences between men and women. Gender has been a big issue within education for many of years, in the 17th and 18th centuries education for girls was at a fairly low standard, but increased in the mid 19th century when all children has the right to attend school.. In the 17th and 118th centuries, education was only aimed for rich boys and young men and they were the only children allowed to go to school, while the girls and young women had to stay at home with their mother and do housework and look after their family. When females were allowed to attend school, females were not allowed to do many subjects from the curriculum. They had to learn needlework, etc.
