Abstract

This paper examines a spatial pattern and processes of academic achievement in deprived area, considering relationship between academic achievement and social deprivation as social context. It links academic achievement data with neighborhood data from the 2001 UK Census(by ward) in South East England and uses multiple regression modeling to estimate the contribution of social deprivation to academic achievement of primary schools. The findings suggest that there is a significant positive relationship between deprivation in the local residential environment and academic achievement in primary schools. It also argues that more deprived area in South East England would tend to promote greater inequality of academic achievement in the spatial aspects, relating to Key Stage 2 score.

본 연구는 영국의 남동잉글랜드지역을 대상으로 사회적으로 박탈된 지역과 학업성취도의 관계를 살펴보고자 하였다. 이 지역은 영국에서 상대적으로 사회경제적 지위가 높은 지역임에도 불구하고 학업성취도의 공간적 편차가 심하게 나타난다. 학업성취도의 공간적 불평등은 거주지역의 박탈여부와 관련하여 설명할 수 있다. 다양한 박탈지표를 사용하여 박탈공간의 패턴을 알아보고 학업성취도와의 관계를 살펴본 결과 남동잉글랜드에서 학업성취도는 사회적으로 박탈된 지역과 매우 밀접한 관련성을 나타냈다. 박탈현상이 심한 지역이 그렇지 않은 지역과 비교하여 상대적으로 낮은 학업성취도를 나타냈다. 남동잉글랜드에서 낮은 학업성취도를 나타내는 박탈지역은 일반적으로 남동해안가에 밀집되어 있으며 내륙으로 들어갈수록 박탈현상이 약해지면서 학업성취도가 높게 나타났다. 그리고 높은 학업성취도에 비해 학업성취도가 낮을수록 거주지역의 박탈요소와 깊은 연관성을 지니는 것으로 설명되었다.
