Includes bibliography. In the face of negative criticism from the neo-Marxists' school of sociological analysis, Hargreaves (1981) suggested that the ethnographers should adopt what he termed a 'split-level' model. This approach entailed a close scrutiny of societal controls and structures in which education took place so as to give meaning to the 'situational structures' where teachers and pupils interacted in classrooms. He advocated that ethnographers locate their work within some context. This investigation will follow Hargreaves' advice but the model will be modified somewhat. There will be a focus upon the 'structural societal relations'; this focus will also encompass an investigation of the saturation of these relations by an ideology which permeates the provision of education. The proposed modification of Hargreaves' model happens where the shift from 'societal structures' to 'situational structures' occurs. The writer proposes that an intermediate stage needs to be inserted, at the level of the school, as a mediating agency of the structural relations. 2016-02-26T07:19:29Z 2016-02-26T07:19:29Z 1986 Master Thesis Masters MEd http://hdl.handle.net/11427/17277 eng application/pdf School of Education Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
