Abstract
Despite the fact that the areas of gender and ‘race’ in education share a common concern over inequality, to date they have on the whole remained separate both at a theoretical level and in published accounts of strategic interventions. This paper explores the predominant theoretical approaches within the two fields and strategies for change, mainly in terms of at whom they are directed. It is argued that in schools, teachers are employing joint strategies and that the way forward for bridging the gap between theory and practice and for developing future practice, is for academics to acknowledge this.Keywords
