education serves the role of social stratification
Which helps to facilitate meritocracy
What is social stratification
A system of unequal rewards
Evaluation of Davis and Moore - Marxist
myth of meritocracy
People aren’t graded on ability or effort, success and rewards are due to class
So social stratification just reproduces inequalities

the most qualified do not get the highest incomes, this is shown through footballers and surgeons. And people get jobs due to family connections
Also high levels of graduate unemployment, so the most qualified or not getting jobs
