Falling pupil numbers and school closures: Setting a research agenda for a new era of precarity

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the significant phenomenon of decreasing pupil numbers in England due to lower birth rates and the impact of a school closure on a school community. It then discusses how the sociology of education might research this major issue.

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Mental health is a critical issue globally, with young people being one of the most affected groups. Young people have campaigned vehemently for a ‘curriculum for life,’ arguing that their education is failing to meet their needs (British Council, 2022).

Single‐subject designs in character education: Methods for rigorous, contextual, and practitioner‐led research

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Character education research is often constrained by blunt methodological tools. Surveys capture breadth without depth; case studies offer richness but lack replicability; and randomised controlled trials (RCTs), though indispensable at the policy level, are costly, disruptive and ill‐suited to everyday practice with individual pupils.

Otherwise engaged? Learning from non‐participation in research with care‐experienced students

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores what can be learned when educational research “fails.” Drawing on a Welland Trust–funded project in the North East of England that aimed to support care‐experienced students transitioning from further to higher education, we reflect on why, despite sustained effort, there was a lack of engagement.

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...
