Drawing on the disciplines of Education, Childhood Studies and Psychology, my work involves understanding ways that school experiences can be improved for Children and Young People. Participation of Children and Young People in the design and running of my research is a central aspect of my work. This is because there is no one more qualified to undercover and help us to understand their experiences than them!
