Our society leaves too many young people behind. More often than
not, these are the most vulnerable young people, and it is through
no fault of their own. Building a fair society and an equitable
education system rests on bringing in and supporting them. By
drawing together more than a decade of studies by the UK's Centre
for Education and Youth, this book provides a new way of
understanding the many ways young people in England are pushed to
the margins of the education system, and in turn, society. Each
contributor shares the personal stories of the young people they
have encountered over the course of their fieldwork and practice,
combining this with accessible syntheses of previous studies,
alongside extensive analysis of national datasets and key
publications. By unpicking the many overlapping factors that
contribute to different groups' vulnerability, the book
demonstrates the need to understand each young person's life story
and to respond quickly and collaboratively to the challenges they
face. The chapters conclude with action points highlighting the
steps individuals, institutions and policy makers can take to bring
young people in from the margins. Young People on the Margins
showcases first-hand examples of where these young people's needs
are being addressed and trends bucked, drawing out what can and
must be learned, for teachers, leaders, youth workers and policy
makers.
