Basil Bernstein
Basil Bernstein was a British sociologist known for his influential theories on language and education, particularly his concepts of 'restricted' and 'elaborated' codes. His work highlighted the impact of social class on language use and access to educational opportunities, arguing that children from different backgrounds may interpret and convey language differently, which can affect their academic success. Bernstein's research has had a lasting impact on educational policy and linguistic theory.
