New Statesman:
The belief that more education will create more equal opportunities has been proved wrong. “The hard truth is that advantage is passed on through a variety of social, economic and cultural mechanisms, many of which are beyond the reach of public policy. The most obvious example is the family, and more particularly the inegalitarian tendency of parents to try to help their own children. Parents with greater resources - financial, physical, intellectual or emotional - will give their children a better start in life.”
