LADDISH MASCULINITY IN HIGHER EDUCATION
A new study finds that 'acting cool' and 'having a laugh' is sabotaging the chances of male working class students at university. Whilst female working class students adapt to their new environment, their male counterparts struggle to fit in and are apt to withdraw into laddish behaviour.

Laurie Taylor is joined by Si芒n Preece, Senior Lecturer at the University of Westminster who contributed to the study, and Deborah Cameron, Rupert Murdoch professor of Language and Communication at Oxford University, to discuss the implications of this latest research with regards to a future widening participation in further education.
