Classroom boundaries and teacher agency: Challenges of implementing Ireland's new primary curriculum
The Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.Abstract This article reports on a doctoral study examining teacher agency in one Irish primary school at a timely moment ahead of the implementation of the new Primary Curriculum Framework in September 2025. The framework embeds teacher agency as a central professional principle, yet findings from this study reveal a more cautious and bounded reality.

Accessing and assessing young learner’s mathematical dispositions
South African Journal of Childhood Education, 2012 It is argued in this paper that there is an absence of literature relating to research on learner mathematical dispositions, particularly with young learners. Drawing on Kilpatrick, Swafford and Findell’s (2001) five interrelated strands of mathematical proficiency, which include: conceptual understanding, procedural fluency, strategic competence ...

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.Anti‐doping programmes require efficient testing, as biological testing is costly; the Athlete Performance Passport (APP) uses performance data to identify at‐risk athletes alongside APMU and ABP methods. Since the introduction of the steriodal passport in 2014, the APP outperformed APMU (17%) and ABP steroidal profiles (10%) with 30% detection ...
