This article describes the way in which policies in a local education authority actually worked to disadvantage a group of children already suffering gross disadvantages. During the 1980's 1LEA was unable to provide sufficient school places for children in Tower Hamlets, 95% of the resulting 'out-of-school' children being of Bangladeshi origin. The article records the efforts of the Tower Hamlets Law Centre to register a complaint on behalf of the children, and the way in which the local and central education authorities avoided their responsibilities to these children. It is suggested that such a situation would never have been tolerated in a white, middle-class area. The article represents a contribution to the sociology of disadvantage in that it indicates the tendency of policy-makers to ignore the economic and social structures which create disadvantage, and to focus on individual or family 'pathology' as a major cause of disadvantage. |
