Abstract

The objective of this study is to discover the patterns that intervene in the choice of school and detect the underlying sociodemographic, economic, and location factors. For this purpose, a survey has been carried out on the potential demand for secondary school places in the city of Valencia. The results show that the main criteria for choosing a school is the proximity between home and school. In addition, the most common way of travelling is by foot. However, this research reveals that travel costs and the means used to complete the school journey are directly related to the socioeconomic characteristics of the fami - lies and the urban morphology of the neighbourhoods. Furthermore, gender differences exist in the care of minors and in the school accompaniment task. For these reasons, the choice of school implies a process of segregation that responds to demographic, socioeconomic, and spatial factors. These processes must be valued by the school network planners to guarantee access to public education in equitable conditions.
