Racism in Schools and Ethnic Differentials in Educational

Achievement: a brief comment on a recent debate

ANDREW PILKINGTON, University College, Northampton, UK

ABSTRACT Whether schools are racist continues to be the subject of intense debate in Britain. Those

writing from an avowedly anti-racist stance argue that schools are responsible for the differential treatment

of African-Caribbean pupils and that it is incumbent on them to reect on their existing practices, whiletheir critics writing from an expressed apolitical stance argue that perfectly appropriate professional

practices result in badly behaved pupils receiving di fferential treat ment, that African-Caribbean pupils only

receive such treatment because they are more likely to misbehave and that there is no need therefore for

schools to re-examine their practices. It is suggested that a way out of this impasse is to recognise that

differential treatment and bad behaviour are part of a vicious cycle. While accepting that the evidence for

racial discrimination in schools is stronger than the critics maintain, this paper argues, however, that we

should be cautious in seeing such discrimination as the major factor accounting for the complex pattern

of ethnic differences in educational achievement.

Sociologys concern with controversial issues often means that passionate disagreements

in the wider society are replayed inside the academy. It is by no means unusual,

therefore, to nd that sociologists fundamentally disagree with each other, and indeed

become involved in heated exchanges. Nowhere is this currently more evident than in

the sociology of education and, in particular, in discussions of the educational experi-

ences of ethnic minority pupils. Here, a debate has been raging which initially concerned

divergent interpretations of ethnographic studies of multi-ethnic classrooms, but has sinceblossomed into a furious confrontation about the purpose of social research. On one side

stand sociologists, including Gillborn, Wright and Troyna, who claim to have discovered

evidence of racism in schools and believe that this is a signicant factor in accounting for

the educational outcomes of different ethnic groups; and on the other side stand

sociologists, in particular Foster, Gomm and Hammersley, who are sceptical of the

evidence for racism, and indeed challenge the credibility of ethnographic and other

studies which purport to show that school processes contribute in any substantial way to

educational inequality.

How to account for group differentials in educational achievement has always aroused

controversy. Take, for example, the issue which was for a long time focal in the sociology

of education: explaining class differentials in educational achievement. Two broad

explanations were put forwardone focusing on the home and the other on the

schoolbut each was highly contested; for an emphasis on the culture of the home seems

to attribute responsibility for childrens low attainment to parents, while highlighting

school processes seems to shift the blame on to teachers. In many ways, the debate withwhich we are concerned herehow to account for ethnic differentials in educational

achievementis reminiscent of this earlier debate.

The current debate has been framed around one central question: are schools racist?

While a lot of ink has been spilt over the meaning of the concept, racism, this question

does not need to detain us here. For what is at issue are the answers to two somewhat

more specic questions: is there evidence of racially discriminatory practices in the

allocation of pupils to sets/streams, and is there evidence of racially discriminatory

treatment in classrooms?

Foster et al. are very clear what they think. On studies claiming to show that schools

exhibit racial discrimination in their allocation of students to different levels of course,

they conclude, Taken overall this body of research fails to establish that discrimination

against black students occurs on any scale in the allocation of students to courses or

through the effects of this allocation (Foster et al., 1996, p. 105). On studies claiming to

show racial discrimination in the classroom, they conclude There are also some serious

problems with the evidential base on which descriptive claims about differential treat-

ment rely. Sometimes no evidence at all is presented And when evidence is provided

it is often of a kind which cannot effectively support the sort of claim made: for instanceone or two examples are offered to establish the different frequency of particular sorts of

teacher action in relation to different categories of student. Moreover many of the

interpretations made of data are questionable (Foster et al., 1996, p. 138). Given such

scepticism towards evidence which points to inequalities at school level and in the

classroom, their overall conclusion comes as no surprise: There is no convincing

evidence currently available for any substantial role on the part of schools in generating

inequalities in educational outcomes between social classes, genders or ethnic groups

(p. 174).

How satisfactory is this critique when applied to ethnicity, where the central concern

has been with the attainment of AfricanCaribbean pupils? We shall begin by examining

the evidence on discrimination in allocation to different levels of course.

Here, there is considerable evidence that AfricanCaribbean pupils are indeed

under-represented in top streams/sets and over-represented in bottom streams/sets.

Even the 199293 Report of HM Chief Inspector of Schools acknowledged that they,

along with other ethnic-minority pupils, were in general under represented in the top

ability sets (Tomlinson & Craft, 1995, p. 6). There is also evidence that placement is

often not based on ability alone and that this disadvantages AfricanCaribbean pupils.Two ethnographic studies of comprehensive schools conducted in the 1980s by Wright

(1987) and Mac an Ghail (1988) provide evidence that behavioural criteria and not

purely cognitive ones were used in the allocation of pupils to examination sets and

streams, and that this practice disadvantaged AfricanCaribbean pupils in particular.

There is also other evidence pointing in the same direction. For example, a study of one

local education authority indicates that when there was a mismatch between the VR

[verbal reasoning] band in which a pupil had been placed by teachers and that based

on test performance, Caribbean pupils were more likely to be placed in the lower VRband while ESWI [English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish] pupils were more likely to be

placed in a higher VR band than their test scores would suggest (Kysel, 1988, p. 88).

Foster indeed noted that behaviour rather than ability inuenced allocation in his own

ethnographic study. As he puts it: the behaviour of older Afro/Caribbean boys tended

to be regarded less favourably. In a sense their youth cultural norms conformed less

closely to the teachers conceptions of the ideal and as a result they seemed somewhat

more likely to be allocated to lower status groups in the schools system of differentiation(Foster, 1990, p. 81). In a revealing footnote to their damning critique of evidence of

discrimination, Foster et al. also acknowledge that it may be of signicance that the

departures from what would be expected on the basis of measured ability that have been

found within and across studies, while small, tend to be always in the same direction.

This indicates that more thorough investigation is justied (Foster et al., 1996, p. 81).

This also, it should be pointed out, indicates that indirect discrimination is probably

occurring since allocation on behavioural criteria has been shown to result, however

unintentionally, in disadvantaging African-Caribbean pupils.

As for the consequences of streaming, the studies of comprehensive schools by Wright

(1987), Mac an Ghail (1988) and Gillborn (1990) concur in seeing a tendency for the

attitudes of different steams/examination sets to polarise, with those in the bottom

streams tending to engage in resistance; and, at some points in their book, Foster et al.

also acknowledge the operation of a differentiationpolarisation effect (Foster et al.,

1996, p. 103).

Let us move on to look at the evidence on inequalities in the classroom. Foster et al.s

critique is valuable in alerting us to some potential pitfalls of ethnographic studies.

Although the latter can provide a rich understanding of classroom processes, there isalways the danger of selective perception with ones observations being interpreted

through the prism of a pre-existing theory. Other interpretations of the data are

invariably possible. Take, for example, the evidence provided by Wright (1992) showing

an AfricanCaribbean 4-year-old boy, Marcus, being criticised. We are led to assume

that Marcus is particularly subject to censure because he is AfricanCaribbean. Could

there not be other reasons, however, unrelated to the boys ethnicity for such censure?

Are other AfricanCaribbean pupils also particularly subject to criticism? In this

particular study, Wright does in fact provide evidence to suggest that white teachers in

general discriminated against AfricanCaribbean boys in general (Woods, 1992). And

this is crucial, for it is only by using different sources of evidence which corroborate each

other that ethnographic studies are convincing. The ethnographic studies of multi-ethnic

classrooms are of variable quality in this respect but all use a variety of methods to

triangulate their ndings. Most point to some differential treatment of Black pupils and

all point to a relatively high level of conict between White teachers and African

Caribbean pupils. Where Fosters study differs from that of others is in seeing teachers

responding appropriately to the behaviour of African-Caribbean pupils and playing no

real part in generating such conict (Foster, 1992).Foster (1993a) argues that teacher typications are normally based on observations of

students behaviour and academic ability in the classroom. He may be substantially

correct. Nonetheless, observations are never innocent and may well be inuenced by

prior typications. Here is a student on teaching practice in a boys comprehensive

learning the ropes from school management: I was told that I had to look out for the

West Indians and what to do. If they went mad, one just had to leave them alone to cool

down, There was nothing we could do, and things like that if they swore at us in their

own language we must report it. They had trouble from them in the past. The studentwas subsequently appointed to the school. Here he is, a year later, The West Indians are

tough. I tried not to let anyone inuence me in how I treated them but they look at you

with wild eyes if you tell them to sit down. They are looking, expecting trouble. They

are more prejudiced than white people. The Asians are better, you tell them to do

something an then meek an [mild] they go an do it (Mac an Ghail, 1988, pp. 6465).

In addition to such evidence that old hands may inuence teacher typications, there is

also evidence from the studies by Gillborn and Wright that the same behaviour may betreated differently by teachers. This is particularly disturbing if it results in African

Caribbeans being particularly subject to censure early in their school career, as in the

case of Marcus. Smith & Tomlinson (1989) indicate that students who are subject to

consistent criticism tend to underachieve.

To point to evidence which suggests that AfricanCaribbean pupils are subject

sometimes to differential treatment in the classroom does not mean, however, that

Fosters ethnographic study and Fosteret al.s subsequent critique of research in this area

should be summarily dismissed. There is substantial agreement that, at least in the latter

stages of schooling, the behaviour of some AfricanCaribbean pupils is not only dened

by teachers as deviant, but in fact is deviant. Where Foster and his critics fundamentally

disagree is over their explanation of bad behaviour. For Foster, primacy is given to

extra school factors. There may be a general tendency for Afro-Caribbean students on

average to be less well behaved in schools (Foster, 1991, p. 168) because of their

adoption of a distinctive subculture consequent on a recognition on their part of poor

post-school prospects and rejection of racism in the wider society. For the others,

primacy is given to school processes, with some AfricanCaribbean pupils pictured as

turning towards a distinctive subculture in order to resist their differential treatment inschools.

The debate between Foster and his critics is reminiscent here of another debatehow

to account for the greater criminalisation of Black people. For some, the greater

involvement of AfricanCaribbean young men in street crime is primarily responsible for

their greater criminalisation; for others, racism at different stages in the criminal justice

system is primarily responsible for their greater criminalisation. More recently, however,

there have been attempts by criminologists to move beyond the either/or of racist

criminal justice v black criminality (Taylor et al., 1995, p. 486) and recognise that both

reinforce and feed off one another in a vicious circle of amplication (Reiner, 1993,

p. 14). By analogy, we might suggest that in schools both differential treatment and bad

behaviour may result in the development of a vicious cycle.

This suggestion has been taken up by some recent ethnographic studies which seek to

show how societal denitions of both ethnicity and gender impact upon the schooling

experiences of Black pupils and create a vicious cycle. Connolly provides one example

from his study of a multi-ethnic primary school. Here the over-disciplining of Black boys

tends to construct an image of them among their peers, as being bad and quintessen-

tially masculine. This, in turn, provides the context where Black boys are more likely tobe verbally and physically attacked. As a consequence, Black boys are more likely to be

drawn into ghts and to develop hardened identities, which then means they are more

likely to be noticed by teachers and disciplined for being aggressive. The cycle is thus

complete (Connolly, 1998a, p. 114).

While Connolly attributes primary responsibility for the generation of this cycle to

teachers, Sewell in a study of a boys secondary school challenges the notion that teacher

racism alone leads AfricanCaribbean boys to adopt a culture of resistance to schooling

(Sewell, 1997, p. 170). While he acknowledges that teachers tend to accept what Gillborn(1990) labels the myth of an African Caribbean challenge and see boys in particular as

threatening their authority, he also emphasises the role of the Black pupils subculture

which helps to feed the stereotype that AfricanCaribbean boys are more openly

aggressive/rude than their weak white counterparts (Sewell, 1997, p. 104).

Both the teachers and pupils are envisaged as inuenced by cultural representations of

Black males acquired outside the classroom. The teachers tended to share the ethnocen-

tric assumptions of the wider society and assume that African Caribbean boys wereinstinctively against authority while Asian boys were the complete opposite (Sewell,

1997, p. 61). The result was that AfricanCaribbean boys received a disproportionate

amount of control and criticism compared with other ethnic groups. At the same time,

the Black subculture in the school drew on a wider street culture and placed emphasis

on a Black collectivist anti-school ideology, on pro-consumerism and phallocentrism

(Sewell, 1997, p. 108). While this subculture enabled the boys to resist the racism of the

wider society and maintain a positive Black identity, its adoption of a macho form of

masculinity was not conducive to academic success. The equation, found in a previous

study (Mac an Ghaill, 1994), for some boys to identify academic achievement with being

gay or effeminate was also evident here and constituted a signicant barrier to those

pupils seeking educational qualications.

The focus of conict between teachers and the subculture often revolved around

displays of ethnicity from the boys. Black hairstyles were a particular bone of contention.

The school sought to ban Black boys from having patterns in their hair, while no such

prohibition was made in relation to White boys who wore pony tails. The result was that

Black hairstyles became a key factor in the display of an AfricanCaribbean masculine

sub-culture that became an alternative to schooling (Sewell, 1997, p. 166). In this way,a vicious cycle can develop in which what is perceived as a lack of respect from teachers

is met by an aggressive response from pupils who in turn are punished for their

behaviour. Such a cycle can have devastating consequences, resulting, as in this school,

in black young people [being] proportionately more likely to be excluded than members

of other ethnic groups (Gillborn & Gipps, 1996, p. 52). Permanent exclusions in fact are

the most extreme sanction schools have. This sanction is now not only being more widely

used for disobedience of various kinds, but disturbingly is being used disproportionately

with Black pupils, especially AfricanCaribbeans.

To acknowledge that the evidence for indirect discrimination at the level of the school

and to acknowledge that the evidence for differential treatment at the level of the

classroom are stronger than Foster et al. suggest does not mean that it is schools which

are most central in generating inequalities in education outcomes between ethnic

groups (Foster et al., 1996, p. 174). Foster et al. are correct in reminding us that we

cannot generalise from particular schools and particular classrooms to all schools and all

classrooms. Indeed, it is questionable whether the rationale for ethnographic research is

to generate generalisations at all (Connolly, 1998b). And, even if there are common

school processesas suggested by the similar picture conveyed by most ethnographicstudieswe cannot reach an informed judgement about the causal efcacy of these

school processes in the absence of a comparison with the contribution of extra school

factors (Pilkington, 1997, pp. 106113). School effectiveness research, which does seek to

control for factors such as prior attainment and social class, suggests that variations

between schools do make a difference, but that extra school factors are much more

signicant in determining student progress (Drew & Demack, 1998). Although this

research is concerned with differences between schools rather than purportedly common

discriminatory practices within schools, and thus cannot be used to refute the suggestionthat racism in schools is of critical importance in accounting for ethnic differences in

achievement, it does suggest that we should be extremely circumspect before reaching a

denitive judgement. The need for caution is reinforced when we recognise the

complexity in patterns of ethnic educational achievement. The most recent Policy Studies

Institute survey reveals that, while some ethnic minority groups are doing better than

Whites, AfricanCaribbean boys (but not girls) are underachieving and that both

Pakistani and Bangladeshi pupils are performing no better (Modood et al., 1997). Therole of racism in accounting for this complex pattern is unclear. Are all ethnic minority

groups subject to discriminatory treatment? If so, how do some groups and indeed some

individuals successfully resist such treatment? Evidence of racism in schools may be

stronger than Foster et al. suggest, but this does not mean that such racism is the major

factor in accounting for ethnic differentials in educational achievement.

The debate, which we have been examining, about the contribution which school

processes play in accounting for AfricanCaribbean underachievement is part of a wider

debate about the purposes of educational research. Foster et al. adopt a methodological

purist stance, stressing that the purpose of research in this area should be to produce

knowledge relevant to public debates, not to eradicate inequality (Foster et al., 1996,

p. 40). By contrast, Troyna and others adopt a partisan, or what Gillborn (1998) prefers

to call a critical, position, seeing the purpose of research as that of documenting what

is going on in order to challenge fundamental injustices (Troyna, 1995). The methodo-

logical purists contend that researchers who adopt an avowedly anti-racist position too

readily accept evidence pointing to indirect discrimination and differential treatment.

The latter retort that all research is political and at least they are explicit about their

value commitments, whereas the methodologica l purists, by imposing extremely stringentcriteria to evaluate studies pointing to indirect discrimination and differential treatment,

are implicitly concerned to defend teachers.

Despite disagreement between those who adopt a methodological purist and a partisan

stance, both in fact are opposed to falsifying data and suppressing unhelpful ndings

(Gillborn, 1998, p. 51) and both recognise the need for assessment of factual claims in

terms of logical consistency and empirical adequacy (Foster et al., 1996, p. 40). Where

methodological purists and partisan researchers disagree is over whether the research on

school processes meet these criteria. The former adopt extremely stringent criteria, argue

that existing studies do not convince them beyond reasonable doubt and on that basis

conclude that it seems unfair and unwise to criticise current practices (Foster, 1993b,

p. 551). By contrast, the latter show that it is always possible to challenge researchers

interpretations, argue that their ethnographic studies present convincing interpretations

and, on that basis, conclude that it is incumbent on schools to re-examine their current

practices. The political implications of the positions adopted by the two sides are clear.

The rst leans to a conservative privileging of current practices; the latter leads to a

radical challenging of current practices. Somewhat ironically, given the explicit adher-

ence of methodological purists to a scientic methodology, it is the partisan researcherswho remain closer to a Popperian philosophy of social science. For, at least, they do put

forward a theory to account for AfricanCaribbean underachievement. By contrast, the

methodological purists content themselves with critiques mostly constructed in negative

terms (Gillborn, 1995, p. 56) and do not, in their joint book, put forward any theory

at all.
