Sociology of Education - What is the New Right’s on Education?
See 'Note Taking Questions' at the end of this description to improve your experience.
This A-Level Sociology and GCSE Sociology video explores the The New Right’s view on education.
The New Right, as a conservative view incorporating neoliberal economic philosophies, is based on a belief that a state cannot meet its people’s needs better than the individual citizens managing their own needs in a free-market. This is their reason this philosophy endorses marketisation of education. Neoliberalism will be explained in our Concept-time part of the video later on.
The New Right is aligned with a functionalist viewpoint in that both endorse the idea that some individuals are more talented than others, the education system should be based on meritocracy and open competition by preparing young individuals to aid the overall economy through their work. They also view education as a means to allow students to socialize in order to reach shared values like competition, as well as create a sense of national identity.
