This insightful book provides a crucial understanding of the relationship between gentrification and education. Drawing on an array of international research, it examines how families, schools and education policies interact with urban transformation to highlight complex and often overlooked patterns.
Leading experts examine how student populations and competition for school places are reshaped when neighbourhoods are transformed by rising housing costs and the arrival of affluent residents. They illustrate how the outcomes of gentrification, including increased segregation, reinforced education inequalities and uneven access to resources, are consistently harmful despite varying local policies. By analysing evidence from diverse contexts, the book demonstrates that schools are not only affected by urban change, but are key sites where the social consequences of gentrification unfold and educational opportunities are limited or widened.
Gentrification and Schooling in Global Cities is an essential resource for scholars and students of educational equity and access, particularly those interested in urban education. Education policymakers and urban planners will also benefit from its actionable recommendations for mitigating the impact of urban change.
