'...a wonderful, rich book with a bold, audacious premise, clear writing, and a reader-friendly structure and plot line.' - Richard Delgado, University of Pittsburgh, USA
'This is a thorough and detailed analysis of the education system which does not just cite racism as the reason for educational inequalities but also explains in clear terms and with ample evidence exactly how white supremacy functions in the education system to maintain social disadvantage.' - Deborah Gabriel, iamcolourful.com
'... this book stands outs from the plethora of studies in this area as a result of the innovative and thought-provoking approach it adopts for its analysis.' ... there is much to praise in this book. It is well written, well argued and thought-provoking.'
Tracey Reynolds, London South Bank University - British Journal of Sociology of Education
... the book excels at bringing together a number of issues that constitute the larger web of conversations about race and education. Gillborn has amassed an impressive array of statistical information and corralled it to make a compelling argument.
Nadine Dolby, Purdue University - British Journal of Sociology of Education

Michael Apple, Educational Policy 2009; 23; 651
Education policy is not designed to eliminate race inequality but to sustain it at manageable levels. This is the inescapable conclusion of the first major study of the English education system using ‘critical race theory’.
David Gillborn has been described as Britain’s ‘most influential race theorist in education’. In this book he dissects the role of racism across the education system; from national policies to school-level decisions about discipline and academic selection.
Race inequality is not accidental and things are not getting better. Despite occasional ‘good news’ stories about fluctuations in statistics, the reality is that race inequality is so deeply entrenched that it is effectively ‘locked in’ as a permanent feature of the system.
Built on a foundation of compelling evidence, from national statistics to studies of classroom life, this book shows how race inequality is shaped and legitimized across the system. The study explores a series of key issues including:
Conspiracy? Racism & Education takes critical antiracist analyses to a new level and represents a fundamental challenge to current assumptions in the field. With a preface by Richard Delgado, one of the founders of critical race theory.
