Item A Some sociologists, such as functionalists, see the education system as playing an important role in preparing pupils for work. They suggest that the education system accurately identifies the more able pupils from the less able through examinations. This allows pupils to be placed in suitable jobs or to receive appropriate training. However, other sociologists are critical of this explanation. Marxists believe that working-class pupils are deliberately failed by the education system. Other views suggest that many things learnt in school, such as drama or music, have no direct connection to the world of work. Applying material from Item A and your knowledge, evaluate sociological explanations of the role the education system plays in preparing pupils for work. [20 marks]
