Sociology
Educational Policies Essay
A sample essay I wrote, answering the question:
“Applying Material from Item A and your own knowledge, evaluate the claim that Marketisation and privatisation policies have increased educational inequality” (20 marks).
To be honest, it's probably a bit lengthy to realistically write as a 20 marker, but has a lot of detail in there. Could even be a sample 30 marker to be honest!
