Background

My research interests include children and young people's wellbeing and engagement in learning, outdoor learning and co-produced, participatory and visual research methods.  Working collaboratively with schools and the wider education community has led to exploration of how research methods can be used as tools for enquiry to aid practitioner and student learning and in how alternative learning environments can increase wellbeing and address educational disadvantage. 

Having worked as a researcher within the Centre for Learning and Teaching (CfLaT) in ECLS since 2005 and as Principal Investigator and Co-Investigator across numerous projects, I have developed a wealth of experience in bid-writing, research design, literature reviews, qualitative, quantitative, visual and participatory research methods, data analysis, project management, reporting research findings, engagement and impact.

I am co-convenor of the North East Outdoor Learning Research hub, member of the 缅北禁地 Social Justice Advisory Group and HaSS Play Research Network and manage the CfLaT Research Tea programme, securing a diverse range of presenters including staff, postgraduate students and invited speakers from academia and practice.
