This paper evaluates intervention programs in schools using the theoretical framework of the critical sociology of education, and most specifically, the extent to which schools are autonomous from the larger society. Three different types of intervention programs are reviewed : drug abuse prevention, sex education, and progrmas to change gender stereotypes, all of whichwere found to have limited effectiveness. Schools appear unable to change behaviours which are prevalent in a culture because they themselves are strongly influenced by that culture, ans because adolescents are influenced by forces outside school. To be effective, such interventions would seem to require governmental agencies, community groups, and the media to work with the schools in order to influence the culture and thus produce behavioural changes in individuals.
