Uneven Geographies of Special Educational Needs and School Segregation in England
The paper documents new educational and social geographies: the intensified and variable geographies of segregation and exclusion of one of the most marginalised groups of children, those with labels/experiences of ‘Special Educational Needs and Disabilities’ (SEND), who are usually disabled or neurodiverse, in England. The disadvantage faced by, and systematic societal failure to support, disabled and neurodiverse children has become increasingl…
Parents’ perspectives on special education in England
In England, the education of disabled and neurodiverse children with ‘Special Educational Needs and Disability’ (SEND) is in crisis, reflecting global challenges. Children are being failed despite spiralling costs. Government’s long-delayed plans for SEND are imminent. Yet scholarship about SEND in sociologies of education is limited. The paper foregrounds parents’ accounts, which are often overlooked, from semi-structured interviews and online …
Failing children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities in England
This paper sets out original findings from analyses of the English National Pupil Database of Key Stage 1 (KS1) attainment, to examine educational outcomes of children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). The schooling of these children has been entirely within the context of the current SEND system, defined by the 2014–2015 policy of the Children and Families Act and Code of Practice. With a strong focus on children's needs an…
Household income supplements in early childhood to reduce inequities in children's development
Recent trends in the spatial distribution of human capital
In modern knowledge‐based societies human capital is the single most important determinant of regional inequalities in productivity and standards of living. Using a newly constructed data set that allows the analysis of educational attainments at different levels of geography, this paper evaluates spatial inequalities and the degree of convergence in the distribution of human capital across areas in England and Wales during the second decade of t…
Exploring patterns of children’s cultural participation
Cultural participation during childhood significantly impacts an individual’s chances of future social mobility and well-being. Research to date has focused disproportionately on adults’ cultural practices, failing to comprehensively examine how children’s cultural participation is formed, structured and linked to their parents’. Drawing upon data from the Taking Part Survey, this article first examines the cultural profiles that emerge in childr…
Socio‐economic groups moving apart
We study changes in the spatial distribution and segregation of socio‐economic groups in Australia using a new data set with harmonised census data for 1991 and 2011. We find a general increase in residential segregation by education and occupation groups across the major capital cities in Australia. Importantly, these trends cannot be explained in general by changes in the demographic structure of groups and areas but rather by the rise in the o…
On the robustness of multidimensional counting poverty orderings
Counting poverty measures have gained prominence in the analysis of multidimensional poverty in recent decades. Poverty orderings based on these measures typically depend on methodological choices regarding individual poverty functions, poverty cut-offs, and dimensional weights whose impact on poverty rankings is often not well understood. In this paper we propose new dominance conditions that allow the analyst to evaluate the robustness of pover…
Driving Precision Policy Responses to Child Health and Developmental Inequities
The growing evidence base on the extent of and opportunities to reduce inequities in children's health and development still lacks the specificity to inform clear policy decisions. A new phase of research is needed that builds on contemporary directions in precision medicine to develop precision policy making; with the aim to redress child inequities. This would include identifying effective interventions and their ideal time point(s), duration, …
