This dissertation undertakes a critical review of the literature on school effectiveness and quality and examines arguments regarding socio-economic status (SES) (which is linked to the notion of family effects) and its role in achievement. The analysis finds that both school and family effects have an impact on achievement that is equally important and relevant. The dissertation concludes by highlighting areas for action in reference to the findings on socio-economic status and achievement. 2015-04-02T13:54:13Z 2015-04-02T13:54:13Z 2011 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12632 eng application/pdf Department of Political Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
