Abstract

The aim of this paper is to explore the role of open-door events as key institutional devices to position schools in local education markets. The paper draws on data from a qualitative study based on observations in 25 open-door events in secondary schools in the city of Barcelona. The findings show, on the one hand, how promotional actions are mediated by a school’s position in the local hierarchy and by objectively unequal features in terms of the type of ownership, social composition and programs offered. On the other hand, the findings reveal how, from these unequal positions, schools display different logics of action aimed at providing information about their status among families and students from different social backgrounds. Overall, the paper presents a typology of schools that contributes to a better understanding of the hierarchy of the local education markets in the transition to upper secondary education.
开门活动:在城市义务教育后市场定位学校
本文的目的是探讨开放活动作为学校在当地教育市场定位的关键制度手段的作用。本文利用了一项定性研究的数据,该研究基于对巴塞罗那市25所中学开放活动的观察。研究结果表明,一方面,学校在当地等级制度中的地位,以及在所有权类型、社会构成和提供的课程方面客观上的不平等特征,如何调节宣传活动。另一方面,研究结果揭示了,在这些不平等的位置上,学校如何表现出不同的行动逻辑,旨在提供有关其在不同社会背景的家庭和学生中的地位的信息。总体而言,本文提出了一种学校类型,有助于更好地理解当地教育市场向高中教育过渡的层次结构。

期刊介绍: The European Educational Research Journal (EERJ) is a scientific journal interested in the changing landscape of education research across Europe. Education research increasingly crosses the borders of the national through its subjects of study, scholarly collaborations and references. The EERJ publishes education research papers and special issues which include a reflection on how the European context and other related global or regional dynamics shape their educational research topics. The European Educational Research Journal publishes double-blind peer-reviewed papers in special issues and as individual articles. The EERJ reviews submitted papers on the basis of the quality of their argument, the contemporary nature of their work, and the level of ''speaking'' to the European audience. Policy-makers, administrators and practitioners with an interest in European issues are now invited to subscribe. The EERJ publishes peer reviewed articles, essay reviews and research reports (forms of research intelligence across Europe)
