1. literacy and language skills: parents spend less time reading to boys and literacy isn't part of their lesuire activities (sport and computer games)
2. feminisation of schooling: assessments have feminised by coursework also 1 in 6 primary school teachers are men
3. Laddish subcultures: Epstein = pro school working class labelled as gay so rebel against school
How the hell do i even go about methods in context revision - seriously freaking out here ):
Can you please confirm that the exam tomorrow is 1H and 30min?

I'm a resister also, so not ready for this 🙈
Hey, guys can someone please tell my how many paragraphs a 25 marker should be? And a good way to structure my essay thanks!
Guys you know for unit 2 (the old spec) how do we need to structure the method in context and research method questions? Are they both just like 4 practical/ethical/theoretical paragraphs?

If so, where do positivism and interprevism fall in here?
