Diversifying curricula
Diversifying higher education curricula has been called for as one way to reduce racial inequalities in higher education. This study makes an original contribution by focusing on images of people in lecture slides. We explored how people of colour versus white individuals were portrayed in images (n = 250) used in lecture slides in four first-year core social sciences modules and whether the images were likely to be 'inspiring' to racially minori…
Who studies Religious Education? Understanding young people’s perceptions of religion, religious identity and religious education in England
There is a growing concern over the waning religious affiliations of young people and doubt about the value of religious education in general. We employed a novel survey design, comprising paired survey questionnaires for students and their parents, to explore their perceptions about religion and religious education. The data analysis of 456 participants across six secondary schools in England confirmed that young people acknowledged attitudes to…
Students’ sense of belonging and their socio-economic status in higher education
This study aims to explore the main aspects of sense of belonging, including academic and social engagement, life satisfaction, thoughts of leaving university, demographic characteristics and socio-economic status by applying quantitative measurement. Having considered the concepts of disadvantaged or non-traditional groups deployed in previous studies, a survey questionnaire was designed to investigate how certain factors are related to students…

Research on inequality in higher education (HE) is often dominated by class‐based assumptions about traditional and non‐traditional students. This binary distinction emphasising students’ socio‐economic status tends to oversimply the complexity of educational inequality, neglecting crucial factors which affect the perception of social position. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the understanding of inequalities in HE with new data on the …
Sense of belonging as an indicator of social capital
Purpose This paper examines the possibility of using sense of belonging as an indicator for social capital. Social capital, from the collective social capital theory perspective, is constructed from three main elements: trust, social network and participation. Social capital is crucial to civil society and well-being, but there is no consensus on how to define and measure it. This paper approaches this problem with the different but related conce…
Four domains of students' sense of belonging to university
Students’ sense of belonging is known to be strongly associated with academic achievement and a successful life at university. To achieve a comprehensive understanding of belonging, this study collected data via the 10 Words Question. Responses from 426 participants were analysed using a sequence of analytic methods including In Vivo coding, systematic coding, clustering, and contingency analysis. The results show that, in addition to academic an…
