Migrant success in UK Education: Are there lessons for government social mobility policy?
British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract The school achievement and career aspirations of 23 sixth form students at a multi‐cultural urban academy in the UK are explored through interviews. The sample includes 16 s‐generation migrants, 6 UK‐born students with migrant parents and 1 UK‐born student, selected to represent a cohort of over 300 post‐16 learners.

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract This study examines the under‐theorized political role and identity of Chinese international students, who emerge as significant actors caught between U.S. soft power ambitions and rising geopolitical suspicion. Amid escalating U.S.‐China tensions, these students are forced to confront environments shaped by competing geopolitical discourses ...

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract In England, education is compulsory, but schooling is not: it is legal for families to home educate their children. This form of education is officially termed by the Department for Education as ‘Elective Home Education’. As this designation implies, many families home educate as a positive and preferential ‘choice’.

, 2020 The models of turbulence tend to predict the statistical evolution of a field governed by a nonlinear equation with terms of forcing and dissipation. For hydrodynamic turbulence the velocity field is governed by the Navier-Stokes equation. To describe a stochastic weakly nonlinear wave field in interaction, the theory of wave turbulence gives us ...

A Method for Optical Quantification of Local Oxygen Limitations in Multiphase Bioreactors
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Spatial oxygen limitation is a major source of physiological stress and metabolic, scale‐dependent heterogeneity in aerobic bioprocesses. In gas‐liquid stirred tank reactors, oxygen availability is governed by hydrodynamics and mass transfer and is therefore inherently non‐uniform.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...
