This article considers the nature of rurality as a social construct and its possible implications for policy makers considering lifelong education in the developed economies of the world. The article is based around research carried out in rural England and informed by similar studies underway in Atlantic Canada. Discussion is shaped around three key questions: what is rurality? What effect has rurality on cultural identity and what are rural and urban young peoples' perceptions of formal education? The article argues that rurality has a cultural identity which cuts across other social divisions in society and that using the anthropological definition of ethnic to describe rural people may well represent their interests better
