In contrast to research that focuses on the underperformance of
young Black males in the British education system, the dominant
notion of this volume is educational success. By aiming to
understand how young, Black-notably African and Caribbean-male
education plays out in different educational spaces, this book
provides new insights around intersections between, and across,
different structural forces and educational contexts. Examining the
political, cultural, and structural factors that shape the
educational journey of young Black men in the British education
system, the book will cover topics such as: Race, gender, and
class, and the attainment gap Contextualising Black men's
educational narratives The role of family and parenting in
achieving success The role of community resource in achieving
success Young British African and Caribbean Men Achieving
Educational Success will be of interest to researchers, academics,
and postgraduate students in the fields of multicultural education
and gender and sexuality in education, as well as educators
concerned with how Black male masculinities play out in educational
discourses. Cecile Wright is Professor in the School of Sociology
and Social Work, University of Nottingham, UK. Uvanney Maylor is
Professor of Education in the Institute for Research in Education,
at the University of Bedfordshire, UK. Thomas Pickup is a Principal
