Reception Baseline Assessment and ‘small acts’ of micro‐resistance
Abstract In September 2021, following the global COVID‐19 pandemic, the Department for Education introduced a national standardised digital Reception Baseline Assessment (RBA) for all English 4‐year‐old children. We analyse RBA and its associated Quality Monitoring Visits, as a further intensification of the new public management of early years ...

Abstract This paper challenges the prevailing assumption that technology‐enhanced learning (TEL) inherently benefits all students in higher education, examining how undergraduate students with specific learning differences (SpLDs) and/or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) use technology for learning.

Functional inequalities involving special functions II
The author [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 319, No. 2, 450--459 (2006; Zbl 1091.33002)] has shown for the ratio \(m(s) = F(a,b,a+b,1-r^2)/F(a,b,a+b,r^2)\) of hypergeometric functions, \[ \sqrt{(m(r)m(s))} \leq m(\sqrt{(rs))}, \quad a, b > 0,\quad r, s\in (0,1).

Abstract Drawing upon interview research across two academic departments as part of the early stages of a ‘decolonise the curriculum’ initiative at a Southern UK university, this study highlights a growing gulf between policy and practice in efforts to address systemic racial inequalities in UK universities. A reliance upon precarious labour, a culture

Contrasting roles of school and public libraries in lower primary pupils' reading
Abstract Libraries represent an important institutional component of children's reading socialisation, yet their role is often treated as uniform despite substantial differences between school and public libraries. This study examines how visits to school and public libraries relate to pupils' reading attitudes, practices and self‐assessed reading ...

Spectral and functional inequalities on antisymmetric functions
We obtain a number of spectral and functional inequalities related to Schrödinger operators defined on antisymmetric functions. Among them are Lieb - Thirring and CLR inequalities. Besides, we find new constants for the Sobolev and the Gagliardo - Nirenberg inequalities restricted to antisymmetric functions.

Abstract As England embarks on its first comprehensive curriculum review in fifteen years, this paper offers critical insights from schools that sustained arts‐rich provision despite a policy landscape hostile to creative subjects. Drawing on data from the Researching Arts‐rich Primary Schools (RAPS) project—a mixed‐methods study of 76 arts‐rich ...

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Functional Inequalities via Lyapunov conditions [PDF]
We review here some recent results by the authors, and various coauthors, on (weak,super) Poincar\'e inequalities, transportation-information inequalities or logarithmic Sobolev inequality via a quite simple and efficient technique: Lyapunov ...

ABSTRACT The apparel industry is one of the world's most profitable sectors but also among the most environmentally damaging. Growing sustainability pressures have led companies to adopt diverse strategies to reduce their impact, yet no single study has systematically analysed these approaches or their consumer implications.
