Looking Back, Looking Forward.The book explores the evolving relationships between parents and children, the significance of the Jewish school in their lives, how young people think about religious practices, and their lives in the UK. It addresses issues related to families and schooling and pays special attention to the transitions to secondary school and then to life opportunities in the following years. It also uncovers the effect of these transitions on the family, and of the family on those transitions. The book views these phenomena through the prism of a ten-year period from when research participants were eleven years old until they were twenty-one, drawing on a range of theoretical frameworks to help make sense of what was observed. The data help clarify how Jewish schools function as both public and community-based institutions, and what they do and do not contribute to the lives of young people. The research reported includes large scale survey data sets as well as repeated in-depth interviewswith parents and their children. The findings have multiple implications for practitioners, policy makers and researchers as they seek ways to understand and engage with families and schools. This book also appeals to researchers who are interested in the development of religious and cultural identity in the context of minority groups within multicultural societies.SchoolsEducation, HigherJudaism and cultureDevelopmental psychologyReligion and sociologySchool and SchoolingHigher EducationJewish Cultural StudiesChild and Adolescence PsychologySociology of ReligionSchools.Education, Higher.Judaism and culture.Developmental psychology.Religion and sociology.School and Schooling.Higher Education.Jewish Cultural Studies.Child and Adolescence Psychology.Sociology of Religion.371Miller Helena1743549Pomson Alex1617792MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910869171603321Jewish Lives and Jewish Education in the UK4171714UNINA
