Reay, Diane; Lucey, Helen
Educational Studies, v26 n1 p83-100 Mar 2000
Explores children's experiences as they are going through the secondary school choice process in two inner London primary schools. Reveals that there remains a strong pattern of class-related orientation to choice despite individual and family differences. Finds that the children's accounts demonstrate a distinction between making and getting a choice. (CMK)
