Using a digital physical health screening template to facilitate integrated care for people with mental health problems
Introduction: People with diagnoses of severe mental illness (SMI) such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder die 15-20 years earlier than the general population, mainly from natural causes. In particular, they have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD)This health inequality was reviewed in 2006 by the Disability Rights Commission in a report called ‘Equal treatment: Closing the gap’. Deprivation and lifestyle were major factors, but …
Psychiatry beyond the current paradigm
A series of editorials in this Journal have argued that psychiatry is in the midst of a crisis. The various solutions proposed would all involve a strengthening of psychiatry's identity as essentially ‘applied neuroscience’. Although not discounting the importance of the brain sciences and psychopharmacology, we argue that psychiatry needs to move beyond the dominance of the current, technological paradigm. This would be more in keeping with the …
Working together? Partnership approaches to 14–19 education in England
Partnership working between institutions and organisations is currently commonly seen as providing solutions to meeting multiple, interrelated needs in areas of social policy including health, social welfare and education. This article examines and discusses the policy and practice of such collaboration in an educational context. Drawing on studies of state‐funded interventions into 14–19 provision in England it offers insights into why and how s…
Meeting the Global Challenge? Comparing Recent Initiatives in School Science and Technology
A comparison is made between two schemes in England and New Zealand--the technology colleges programme and the Science and Technology Teacher Fellowship scheme--designed to promote science and technology education in the two countries. Both schemes are placed within the context of recent developments in science and technology education in England and New Zealand and are evaluated as responses to the challenges posed for science and technology edu…
The new business studies and the transformation of the business curriculum
This article presents a study of business education in schools in England and Wales. Its aim is to show three things. First, how, as business education in schools was reconstituted in the 1980s and 1990s, it became imbued with discourses through which syllabus content, teacher perspectives and teacher-student interactions were structured and channelled in particular ways so as to attempt to produce certain kinds of vocational identities congruent…
Critical Ethnography
This paper reviews and critiques significant developments within contemporary ethnography. The first part of the paper traces the antecedents of ethnography in an anthropology which was itself closely identified and entwined with colonialism and imperialism. The paper then goes on to review contemporary developments within ethnography, particularly those associated with postmodernism. Attempts to establish a critical ethnography are reviewed and …
The Technical and Vocational Education Initiative and school autonomy in the management of curriculum change
This paper arises out of wider, ESRC‐funded research on the legacy of the Technical and Vocational Education Initiative (TVEI) in a national sample of original pilot schools. The paper draws on two periods of fieldwork in the schools, the first in 1985 and 1986, the second in 1991 and 1992. This methodology allows the adoption of a longitudinal perspective in studying TVEI. The paper focuses on attempts to manage curriculum change through TVEI. T…
The Fate of the Technical and Vocational Education Initiative in a Pilot School
This paper arises out of wider Economic and Social Research Council funded research on the legacy of the Technical and Vocational Education Initiative (TVEI) in a national sample of original pilot schools. It describes and analyses the development of TVEI in one school over the period 1983‐91 and draws on field‐work at the school in 1986 and 1991. The development and demise of a radical cross‐curricular course are explained. It is argued that the…
