- Abstract: A main point in research on social inequality in educational attainment has been the tendency for social origin to affect educational choice, even among students who have received equal grades. This article studies the basis on which the choice to continue into secondary level education is made, and, more specifically, whether or not students leaving elementary school tend to choose the academic track of secondary schooling. The data are from Oslo and include all elementary school leavers in the years 2001-2003. The question raised is whether the social origin of these school leavers has any bearing on their choice, and whether there are differences by area in Oslo, when those who are similar with respect to social origin and educational performance are compared. The results show that there are large differences in choice. Both social and geographic origins affect choice, even when students with equal levels of educational performance are compared. The social and geographic inequalities are greater among majority students than in the population at large, i.e. including immigrants. Inequalities of educational choice within Oslo cannot therefore be explained by the characteristics of the immigrant population, as is often assumed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
- Abstract: I den senere tid har det vært mye debatt om sosial ulikhet i skolen. Debatten har fokusert sterkt på prestasjoner, noe som har bidratt til en oppfatning om at sosiale ulikheter i suksess i utdanningssystemet i all hovedsak dreier seg om prestasjonsforskjeller. Denne oppfatningen står i kontrast til sentrale bidrag innenfor utdanningsforskning, som har konkludert at den viktigste årsaken er valgforskjeller: Personer med like prestasjoner, men forskjellig klassebakgrunn, gjør ulike valg når det gjelder videregående og høyere utdanning. Etter at man har begynt å offentliggjøre skoleprestasjoner på de enkelte skolene, er det også avdekket at elevene på vestkanten av Oslo oppnår et høyere karakternivå enn østkantelevene. Disse bydelsforskjellene forklares gjerne som resultat av at østkanten har den største andelen elever med innvandrerbakgrunn. Denne artikkelen tar opp ulikheter i rekruttering til videregående utdanning i Oslo i årene 2001-2003; nærmere bestemt undersøkes det hva sosial bakgrunn, prestasjoner og bydelstilhørighet betyr for om elevene velger allmennfaglig utdanning eller ikke. Resultatene understørter at de sosiale valgforskjellene er betydelige. Det vises også at sosiale og geografiske ulikheter i Oslo ikke skyldes egenskaper ved innvandrerbefolkningen -- ulikhetene er større innad i majoritetsbefolkningen enn når innvandrere inkluderes i analysene.
