Cultural Reproduction Theory in Education
Quick fact
Pierre Bourdieu argued that schools are not neutral—they tend to reward the cultural habits of the middle and upper classes, which means that the 'best' students are often those whose parents have already taught them the 'secret' rules of schooling.
Why this is interesting
Have you ever felt like school is a game where the rules are never fully written down? That's because the real curriculum may be the social 'know-how' you bring from home.
