What are the 3 main perspectives of education?

Answer 1

Functionalist, Marxist and Weberian

Here's the Functionalist view of Durkheim to start you off
Durkheim argued that education has many functions:

To reinforce social solidarity
History: Learning about individuals who have done good things for the many makes an individual feel insignificant.
Pledging allegiance: Makes individuals feel part of a group and therefore less likely to break rules.
To maintain social roles
School is a society in miniature. It has a similar hierarchy, rules, expectations to the "outside world". It trains young people to fulfill roles.
To maintain division of labour.
School sorts students into skill groups, encouraging students to take up employment in fields best suited to their abilities.

Also look at the labelling theory and look at the work of Merton

Economic-class conflict
Status-group conflict
While schools are influenced by their communities, all schools share the primary function of meeting students' three basic needs:


Academic needs
Psychological needs
Physical needs
