Following undergraduate studies in Philosophy and a PGCE in primary teaching I began my work in education in 1976 working first as a classroom teacher in Glasgow and later as teacher of English as and Additional Language for Avon Education Authority. I was a Community Teacher at an inner city primary school and then took on the role of Advisory Teacher across East Bristol.

Research

Research interests

My practical and theoretical research is in philosophy in education and professional practice; democratic, community and intra-generational learning. I have a longstanding interest in teaching and researching controversial subjects and am currently involved in a collaborative project that explores 'dangerous knowledge' in higher education.

I am currently engaged in a PESGB funded project on teachers' perspectives on Philosophy for Children in a group of East London secondary and primary schools.

I am co-investigator on an international project Decolonising Early Childhood Discourses in Higher Education funded by the South African NRF. This project works with ideas in the fields of posthumanism and new materialism.

With colleagues Cath Gristy and Marie Lavelle at Plymouth University I am involved in a PEDRIO funded project 'A University for All Ages'. This project investigates how people on our campus experience age and the impact of age related bias.
