Abstract
This article starts with the premise that understadings of choice, that view choice as decontextualised. Public policy discourse are rhetorical devices which hide a range of policy intentions which serve in the maintenance of inequalities in access to and benefit from schooling. Educational choices take place in specific socially and economically structured contexts. All choices are to varying extents constrained. He explores these constraints and the complex intricacies of educational choice they frame through an examination of the experience of two groups of mothers. He argues that parental choice cannot be adequately conceptualised in isolation from localised issues of history and geography, understandings of the psychological impact of social class , and the influences of differential access to social power and material resources
