This project investigated the role of aspirations on social reproduction and social mobility across the divides of gender, ethnicity, and disability. This project used data from the Millennium Cohort Study (MCS), Next Steps (previously known as the Longitudinal Study of Young People in England, LSYPE), and the National Child Development Study (NCDS). As well as addressing questions on gendered choices in relation to education and occupation, the project looked across cleavages by ethnicity and disability. The project described the patterning and development of trajectories of aspirations and attainment across, childhood and youth and into adulthood. The project also explored social experiences and life course transitions.
