This book provides a unique perspective into the world of supplementary schooling, exploring both the social positioning of these schools and the ethnic minority communities they serve. The author presents a close examination of the establishment and functioning of supplementary schools which offers a fresh and novel insight into acculturation processes. Drawing on empirical data gathered from staff interviews, classroom observations and interactive recordings, this book explores the operation of supplementary schools as sites of identity construction where the community identities are preserved, defended, renegotiated and reconstructed. The various modes of construction are indicative of the acculturation experiences of ethnic minority communities and the ways in which these communities negotiate residence in one country whilst having roots in another. This book therefore offers a revealing conceptualization of supplementary schools, not merely as educational spaces, but socio-political enterprises that are situated within and respond to various historical, social and political contexts. This pioneering work will appeal to students and scholars in the fields of education, migration and identity.

In Supplementary Education, the editors argue that while access to schools that enable and expect academic achievement is a necessary ingredient for the education of students, schools alone may not be sufficient to ensure universally high levels of academic development. Supplemental educational experiences may also be needed. The idea of supplementary education is based on the assumption that high academic achievement is closely associated with exposure to family and community-based activities and learning experiences that occur both in and out of school in support of academic learning. For low income and some ethnic minority student groups, opportunities to participate in such activities are generally under-resourced and underutilized in comparison to the access to and participation in such activities by many European- and Asian- Americans from mid to high socio-economic backgrounds. This book makes the case for supplementary education. Specifically, it focuses on the need for universal access to high levels of academic achievement, and the challenge of reducing the 'achievement gap' that exists between Asian American and European American students and their African American, Latina/o, and Native American counterparts. Having posed the problem, the editors define the construct and provide in-depth descriptions of some of the more colloquial expressions of supplementation in after school care, youth development, and other forms of supplemental education. The editors close with a discussion of the emerging institutionalization and need for more thoughtful and rigorous research of the supplementary education movement.

Published in 1985. Cultural identity is a key factor in shaping educational policy. In many countries there are significant minority groups who require educating in a certain way in order to meet their specific cultural needs. Also, in countries which are trying to change direction politically, reshaping education is an important factor in bringing about this change. In many countries tension arises and reforms are required because educational policy fails to cater correctly for cultural needs. This book examines many facets of the problem in many important countries of the world. It looks at policies designed for ethnic minorities and at policies aimed at bringing about far-reaching societal and cultural change. It discusses the tensions caused by policies and the pressures for reform.

This book addresses the issues confronting parents, students, schools, and governments as they struggle to cope with the challenges of new migrants, migration, and to how to effectively educate them. The book examines the causes of underachievement among ethnic minorities in the United Kingdom, especially people of African and Afro-Caribbean descent. It highlights the frustrations of teachers in mainstream schools as they interact with children from overseas and some ethnic minorities. It also gives an insight into the problems and challenges facing black childrens education and how supplementary schools are positioned to narrow the gap in underachievement among such communities in collaboration with parents and mainstream schools. The book offers practical but crucial steps and strategies that are necessary to actualize the educational aspirations of parents for their children. The book discusses the seven behaviors of outstanding students, how to maximize learning, and seven things every parent should know about their children, seven decisions that will guarantee a stronger home among other things. This is a call to action for all involved. The role of students is vital, so this book reveals the steps all students should take and how to develop the behaviors, attitudes, and dispositions that will guarantee educational excellence and success. The author reviews the importance of education through the lenses of social and human capital theories and challenges all parents regardless of their socioeconomic status to play active roles in the educational development of their children in the hope of developing the capabilities of each child. There is something in this book for every child, every parent, every career, every teacher, everyone with responsibility over children and young people and for policy makers and governmental agencies concerned about creating a culture of excellence in education and schools through partnership with the various stakeholders.

Cities across Europe are trying to meet the challenge of a pluralist society, especially in education. This book presents the findings of four years of research and trials undertaken by the DIECEC Network (Developing Intercultural Education through Cooperation between European Cities). Their work with 18 cities starts from the premise of a positive attitude to diversity and to transformational cooperation in its work on raising the standards of black and bilingual pupils. It takes a whole-community and multilevel approach to ensuring that schools endorse the richness and diversity of people from differing linguistic, religious, cultural and social heritages. This book synthesizes the proven practical measures that have improved pupils' school performance.
