This lecture will draw on research projects conducted over the last twelve years, involving families from different social class and ethnic groups. It explores factors identified in current policy, media and other social and political forums as the risks and responsibilities of contemporary parenting, with a particular focus on parents' engagement with schooling and teachers. It argues that there is a fundamental need for researchers and practitioners to deconstruct common sense understandings of what constitutes 'good' parental behaviour in relation to schools and other educational settings, and instead to seek to engage with the diversity of perspectives which families from different social class and ethnic groups bring to the education of their children, and the differential resources with which they equip those children.
Carol Vincent has researched and written extensively on the area of families and their relationships with the education system. She has a particular interest in the ways in which social class shape this relationship. Recent research projects include explorations of the exercise of parental voice in secondary schools, the ways in which middle- and workingclass families choose childcare for their babies and young children, the training of childcare workers and the educational strategies of the black middle class. She started her career as a primary school teacher in the London borough of Hackney, and now has two children in London schools.
