S ummary . The ways in which teacher‐pupil contacts are distributed between 179 pupils in five first‐year junior school classes are examined. Inequalities of distribution are demonstrated, and evidence from teacher ratings suggests that the children receiving high levels of contact are either active, bright, personable children, or active, duller, miscreants. Different kinds of contacts are received by these two groups of children.
