W świadomości społecznej istnieje przekonanie, że to wykształcenie uzyskane na poziomie wyższym decyduje o sukcesie społeczno-zawodowym jednostki. Trudno jest temu zaprzeczyć. Jednakże wiele badań eksponuje fakt, iż to właśnie szkoła średnia, a w szczególności liceum, jest decydująca, (obok czynnika rodzinnego) w kształtowaniu kapitału kulturowego jednostki i jej „potencjału” społecznego. Trudno jest przecenić w tym zakresie, zarówno w kontekście historycznym, jak i współcześnie, rolę elitarnych szkół licealnych, z absolwentów których w praktyce tworzy się elita intelektualna danego społeczeństwa. Niniejszy artykuł wpisuje się we współczesne debaty na temat roli edukacji w podtrzymywaniu nierówności społecznych. Podejmuje on ten problem na przykładzie społecznych funkcji brytyjskich elitarnych szkół średnich, w kontekście konstruowania tożsamości absolwentów oraz dynamiki relacji między zjawiskiem reprodukcji kulturowej a ruchliwości społecznej.

Higher education, in the social consciousness, is considered to determine the social and professional success of an individual. It is difficult to deny this. However, a vast amount of research highlights the fact that it is, in fact, the secondary education, and the secondary school in particular (apart from the family factor), that is decisive in shaping the individual’s cultural capital, and their social „potential”. In this respect, it is difficult to overrate the role of elite secondary schools, both in the historical and contemporary perspectives, whose graduates form intellectual elites of a given society. This article is a contribution to the contemporary debates on the role of education in sustaining social inequalities. It considers this issue on the example of social functions fulfilled by British elite secondary schools in the context of constructing graduate identities and the dynamics of relations between the phenomenon of cultural reproduction and social mobility.
