| dc.description.abstract | This paper investigates issues relating to access to primary schools in Trinidad and Tobago, and seeks to explain overcrowding and under-capacity of school places in different areas. The physical state of schools, the attitudes of school principals, and the examination tradition of primary schools are discussed as factors involved in determining access. Parents who are more aware of the mechanisms of primary school entry are likely to manipulate the system to the advantage of the children, thus helping to entrench social inequities | |
