Abstract | This article explores the perspectives of Pakistani-heritage Muslim young people on their educational progress, against a background where Muslim students are monitored for their vulnerability to radicalisation. The literature offers competing explanations for the persistent inequalities in attainment among different minority-ethnic groups, but the voices of pupils themselves are seldom heard. In this study, young people offer their own explanations of distinctive aspects within the local attainment data, which run counter to national trends. The principal sources of data are extended discussions with 36 Pakistani-heritage young people, and a survey conducted by some of the young people among 165 of their peers. Analysed through a Bourdieuian lens, the findings indicate that these Muslim young people are motivated by a strong sense of habitus and religious identity that transcends the divisions of social class. Further, they are actively engaged in habitus transformation, which drives their educational aspirations but involves personal cost, dilemmas and constraints. (As Provided). |
