Abstract
This paper reports on data drawn from a study exploring the educational strategies of 62 Black Caribbean-heritage middle class parents. In this paper we consider the respective roles of race and class in the shaping of parents’ educational strategies, deploying an analysis that focuses on their intersection, and seeks to hold both race and class in productive tension. Drawing on empirical data, we illustrate how parents’ classed and raced identities shape their interactions with school staff.
