The article aims to discuss the processes of transmission of cultural heritage and its contradictions. To this end, it analyses the schooling trajectories of three generations of a family from working class that experienced a process of upward social mobility through schooling. The fathers, mothers, children, and uncles of two generations of the same family were interviewed. The analysis showed that the members of the second generation of the family had successful school and social careers and that the third generation also followed a schooling path that signaled that they valued schooling as a way of maintaining the social position achieved by their nuclear families. The exceptions are two trajectories of dropping out or not entering higher education. Based on these, the paper discusses the complexity of the transmission of cultural heritage process and the contradictions existing in it.
