The Working Classroom: How to make school work for working-class students (2023) by Matt Bromley and Andy Griffith
By two authors with extensive personal and professional experience of the ways in which working-class students are disadvantaged by the current system, this book shares practical strategies to help secondary schools close the gap – including building cultural capital, designing learning that is more engaging to working-class students, and harnessing the rich heritage of working-class culture. It includes key questions for reflection, case studies, and suggested lesson plans. Plus: get a free copy when you register for The Working Classroom course (details above).
