Abstract:Secure Children's Homes accommodate some of the most vulnerable children in society and yet they have evaded sustained academic attention. Consequently, little is known about children's education in this type of setting. Through the lens of institutional ethnography, this paper explores how experiences of education inside one Secure Children's Home in England are shaped by the institution. This approach makes visible that while the small-scale of the setting is of value, the mix of children accommodated for qualitatively different reasons is problematic for both the delivery of education and the children's engagement in learning.
