There are many reasons why working class children fail to reach the ‘top of the ladder’. This is can be down to material deprivation. Working class families do not have the money to buy material goods (ie: computers, educational toys, books), good quality food or to go on days out or holidays which will expand they cultural knowledge and give them a head start in life. Children generally live in smaller houses than their middle class peers and do not have their own space to concentrate on their school work. Parents of the lower class children quite often just do not have the time to spend with their children due to preoccupation of their own problems (money, housing etc) or working unsociable hours.
