We are a diverse group of scholars who draw on, and engage with, a range of disciplines, epistemologies, and creative methodologies, to examine pressing social, cultural, political and technological issues in education.

The School of Education, Culture and Society are a diverse group of scholars who draw on, and engage with, a range of disciplines, epistemologies, and creative methodologies, to examine important social, cultural, political, and technological issues in education.

Our research engages around four broad themes - globalisation, time/space and education; leadership, knowledge and pedagogies for just institutions and communities; social justice, ethics and policy formation; and digitalisation, infrastructures and governance.
