| Abstract: | Explored youth disaffection, focusing on K-12 schools in England and France. Data from student interviews, staff interviews, and classroom observations indicated that educational inclusion in the two countries was not meeting the educational needs of disaffected youth. Within the disaffected cohort, those from ethnic minorities were doubly disadvantaged by being considered disaffected and belonging to so-called "problem groups" marked by their ethnicity. (SM) |
