Abstract
The changing nature of work and growing competition for access to the core labour force has attached a premium to the value of education in advanced capitalist societies. Socio-spatial variations in the quality of the educational environment exert a major influence on individual life chances. This paper first examines the relationship between educational attainment and sociospatial context and then maps the differential incidence of educational disadvantage with reference to the city of Glasgow. The research findings inform the formulation of an education policy aimed at providing a socially sensitive response to the problem of educational disadvantage within the city.
