Abstract

This paper analyzes 2,054 migrant and 700 local children in 11 schools of Beijing to explore the basic features of social network structure of class network, and the roles and determinants of migrant children in the class. The main conclusions are: the schools recruiting both migrant and local children overall promote exchanges between the two groups, but on the individual, migrant children face the higher risk of isolated in mixed classes. To some extent, migrant and local children’s integration seems selective. Family relationship, family control and academic performance mainly influence the roles of migrant children in their class.
