It most certainly can do. White kids in America for example, have about $2000 a year per student more spent on their education compared to black children due to the way that schools are funded through property taxes.
In the UK, research has shown a strong correlation between good schools and higher house prices, especially at secondary level. This can impact children's opportunities and given that a large proportion of people in lower income backgrounds are from ethic minorities, this can have a big impact on later social mobility. Children from more affluent homes go to better schools, get better jobs and buy better homes and so the cycle continues.
Many outstanding Academies are established in poor areas.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Bad arguments.
I'm not interested in America, whose whole education system is vastly different to our own, in a country that still thinks a racial divide is acceptable.
Good schools exist in better off areas because people pay more to get their kids into the catchment areas for those schools. However there shouldn't be good or bad schools, they only exist because the bad schools, for various reasons, can't attract the best teachers. They are all working to the same curriculum after all, but disinterested pupils will drag the whole school down. So the question is, why are there disinterested pupils?
I was raised in leafy surrey and went to a school in a poorish area , only a few teachers reached me once BAT results put me in the top class after being regulated to the bottom class by the teachers against my parents objections. Most people in the top class were middle class the ones in the bottom classes were working class (not many ethnic minorities around 50 years ago).
The schools round Slough that were failing haven't changed their catchment areas or been gold plated to become graded outstanding, they just sacked most of the crap teachers when they became academies. Over half of my daughters' class were 'ethnic majorities' (in Slough) the rest are either eastern european or white British.
The Academies also take more interest in the parents and see them as partners in education.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
