16. The elaborate code and the middle class Middle class families have less rigid relationships in them. The hierarchy is more flexible. People here are treated more as individuals who are ‘entitled to have something to say’. These families share decision-making and negotiation is common place. The same is true of middle-class ‘non-manual’ jobs, where the middle class worker has more respect, freedom and independence. Schools operate with the elaborate code and therefore middle class children are at an advantage.
