This document discusses criticisms of interactionsist perspectives that focus too much on factors inside schools. It notes that interactionsists are seen as too deterministic by ignoring outside cultural and material factors. Additionally, interactionsists do not give enough consideration to problems from inequalities in wider society that teachers cannot control. The document also lists some internal school factors that interactionsists sometimes ignore in their conclusions, such as class sizes, school funding, teacher morale, pressures to meet performance targets, and stratifying students for different academic tracks.
