It is widely believed that status attainment nowadays, much more than in the past, is based on achievement rather than on ascription and as such that education, as an indicator of individual abilities, has become more important in the process of social mobility. As in most Western societies, the educational participation in Flanders has strongly increased during the second half of the last century. Using the data of 3000 Flemish 23 year olds the authors, Ilse Laurijssen and Ignace Glorieux study the influence of social background and gender on the school careers. The authors examine whether, and how, choices and attained positions influence further school careers, and to what extent social origin and gender still influence processes of educational achievement. |
