Which of the following is not likely to explain differences in exclusion rates from school between pupils from different social class and ethnic backgrounds ?

Correct answer: B. privatization

  • A. anomie
  • B. privatization
  • C. institutional racism
  • D. ethnocentrism

Explanation

Institutional racism and ethnocentrism can produce unequal treatment, while anomie can help explain norm-related behaviour and exclusion. Privatization is a change in ownership or provision and is not normally a direct explanation for class- or ethnicity-based exclusion-rate differences.
