The introduction to this book implied that educational attainment is related to a complex of language skills and knowledge in which the kind of socio-linguistic differences described by Deutsch and Bernstein played but a part. The elaboration of this theme has led to a fairly detailed consideration of the language skills of both teachers and pupils in various educational activities. Points at which handicap or misunderstanding might occur proved to be many and varied, but simple determining relations between language and attainment proved elusive.
