Cultural deprivation theorists argue that failure to socialize children adequately is the result of a dysfunctional family structure.
Cultural deprivation theorists see lack of motivation as a major cause of the failure of many black children.
Ken Pryce (1979) also sees family structure as contributing to the under-achievement of black-Caribbean pupils in Great Britain. From a comparison of black and Asian pupils.
He claims Asians are higher achievers
as the culture is more resistant
to racism and gives them
a greater sense of self-worth.
Whereas, black-Caribbean culture
is less cohesive and less resistant
to racism so these pupils have
low self-esteem and under-achieve.
Cultural deprivation theorists see the lack of intellectual and linguistic skills as a major cause of under-achievement in many minority children.
Driver and Ballard (1981) argue that Asian family structures bring educational benefit as parents often have a more positive attitude towards education & higher aspirations for their child's future and are more supportive as a result.
However some sociologists see the Asian family as an obstacle to success, despite the high levels of achievement from Asian minorities. This is because Asian families are 'stress ridden', bound by tradition
and with a controlling attitude towards children,
especially girls.
