British Pakistani children are the second largest ethnic group in
UK schools, yet little of their education and wider needs have been
researched. British Pakistani Boys, Education and the Role of
Religion seeks to rectify this, by investigating the educational
achievement of British Pakistani boys and the importance of
education both in the Pakistani community and in the wider religion
of Islam. The book draws on research undertaken by the author in
three British state secondary schools, to respond to the national
policy on the education of ethnic minority children. It considers
the meaning of education for Pakistanis, where religion plays an
integral role, the gaps in education as well as the issue of
representation - in governance and in the teaching workforce. The
author concludes by discussing the possibility of responsive
education better meeting the needs of Pakistani children by
integrating Islamic religious education and education of the world.
British Pakistani Boys, Education and the Role of Religion will be
vital reading for academics and both undergraduate and postgraduate
students in the fields of Education and Sociology and specifically
those studying inclusion, equality and diversity, or Asian, Muslim
or Pakistani education. It would also appeal to education
practitioners, policy makers and community activists.
