Alternative education provision : a dumping ground for 'wasted lives' or a challenge to the mainstream?
2013
Overview
This paper draws on Zygmunt Bauman's 'Wasted Lives' to explore the ways in which young people are constructed in an alternative education site in a regional Queensland (Australian) city. It draws heavily on interview data collected from the school principal to document the ways in which the school resists constructions of the 'rubbish student'. This resistance, the authors suggest, provides an indication of how mainstream schools can better serve the needs of some of their most marginalised students. [Author abstract]
