Abstract
ABSTRACT This article argues that geographical theories are generative when to comes to understanding how educational disadvantage is produced and reproduced across generations. Spatial theories can inform critical interrogation of the ways in which students and their families from particular places, such as communities of poverty are represented in the media. Yet spaces and places can also become rich curricular resources when treated as assets for designing and enacting pedagogies of care and belonging.

Australian Geographer was founded in 1928 and is the nation"s oldest geographical journal. It is a high standard, refereed general geography journal covering all aspects of the discipline, both human and physical. While papers concerning any aspect of geography are considered for publication, the journal focuses primarily on two areas of research: •Australia and its world region, including developments, issues and policies in Australia, the western Pacific, the Indian Ocean, Asia and Antarctica. •Environmental studies, particularly the biophysical environment and human interaction with it.
