Education

Secondary form of socialisation


The formal curriculum is based on the language and culture of society and reflects its values


Sociologists also argue we learn the informal curriculum

Informal curriculum

Also known as the ‘hidden curriculum’.


All the other norms and values you learn at school outside your formal lessons.


For example: That society values achievement or that you get sanctions if you disobey like detention.

Bowles and Gintis (1976)

Argued that the Education system was a giant ‘Myth making machine’


Pupils are taught to accept their place in society. Believe that their achievements and failures are of their own and that everything is fair and based on merit.
