I’m a sociological psychologist who’s worked as market stall trader, maths teacher, educational psychologist, and therapist. My funded research has looked at community-orientated schools; child participation; and the myths of raising aspirations. Currently interests: reducing educational inequalities; demonstrating that society’s not broke; making mini-films of academic ideas; using video and narrative to bring change in relationships; children’s political activism; effecting real democratic participation in society (ie the Woodcraft folk, United World Colleges); and what happens to children’s services as the market takes over local authorities.
