Biographical
Note
I am a
Senior Research Fellow who has been continually employed
at the University of Edinburgh since 1997, working
on over twenty research projects. My research has
always been policy based and has been on topics such
as Restorative Approaches in schools; disciplinary
exclusion from school; multi agency working in schools;
ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). I have a particular interest
in the relationships between schools and parents/carers, children and young
people, especially with those who may be viewed as vulnerable and/or marginal
to mainstream schooling. I have taught 'qualitative data analysis' on the MSc
Research (Education). Before studying for my MA and PhD I worked in residential
care settings with children and young people.
