The topic Statement

In this proposal, I will be looking at the correlation that exist between crime and educational performance (Bell et al., 2018)

Education should not have any correlation to crime because education ought to structure positive beliefs and morals, regardless of scores in academic tests (Lochner, 2020).

Research Question

The question is why there is an apparent correlation between crime and poor performing students? (Pengwen,2017).

Is community or education to blame for correlation?

These questions indicate an ongoing debate that has not been resolved. Crime and education could be related but do not have direct correlation with each other (Bell et al., 2018).

The tentative hypothesis

In my view, I think the research will indicate that the correlation between crime involvement and poor performing students is because of the educational inequality (Bell et al., 2018).

Why the topic

I chose the topic because am working on crime ad education and how it relates to inequality

The first thing that we need to ask ourselves is why should there be a gap in quality of education (Dagenais,2017).

The question is whether the government is doing enough or is there a power struggle? If the state really understands there is a correlation between those two concepts, then why is it not taking measures to halt the educational inequality (Bell et al., 2018).

The question many people keep on asking themselves is how the government intervention can contribute to crime and education (Lochner, 2020).

The district schools from the low-income societies have a tendency of providing less educational opportunity to their students (Bell et al., 2018).
