Abstract | A range of initiatives to promote well-being and empowerment have been introduced into English schools. These ostensibly support the citizenship curriculum that seeks to foster a more active and engaged populace. Whilst children are being encouraged to view their own well-being as a personal project (and as a badge of successful citizenship), this process is being undermined by an informal curriculum of citizenship, embedded within the culture of performativity, that is promoting a climate of misrecognition within schools. This form of "symbolic violence" (that affects working-class families disproportionately) is encroaching into the private sphere, traditionally a "potential" refuge providing opportunities for the development of forms of well-being that were not dependent on institutional endorsement. It is suggested that some of the counter-hegemonic values developed in the face of marginalisation might usefully inform issues of citizenship and well-being in schools in ways that would encourage genuinely empowered forms of citizenship. (As Provided). |
