abstract |
Richardson (2008b) outlined known relationships between gender, ethnicity, and academic
attainment in UK higher education. In the period since this publication, many changes
to the higher education sector have occurred, including raising tuition fees, an increased
focus on widening participation, and an increasing interest in diversifying the curriculum.
There is a need for an updated and expanded literature review to highlight whether
the relationships between gender, ethnicity, and academic attainment remain the same
one decade later. This article synthesises the current literature related to the impact
of gender, social class, and ethnicity on higher education participation and academic
attainment. We highlight the important role of intersectionality in understanding
overarching trends. Altogether, this literature review shows that there are persisting
inequalities in both participation and attainment based on gender, social class, and
ethnicity. To conclude, we provide several suggestions for improving our understanding
of these phenomena in the decades to come. |
