Barriers to fair participation for career change teachers entering teaching
Biographies, ontological security and the socio‐spatial politics shaping teachers' mobility in remote Australia
The global teacher shortage continues to intensify, with disparate impacts across geographic and socio‐economic communities. In Queensland, Australia, where this study originates, post‐COVID teacher shortages have intensified workforce pressures, leaving several regional, rural and remote schools as some of the ‘hardest‐to‐staff’ in the country. Despite Queensland's mobility policy and high teacher mobility potential, encouraging teachers, especi…
Induction and the early career substitute teacher workforce
Hard-, harder-, hardest-to-staff
Precariously employed early career teachers and induction policies
Career change teacher
Career change teachers (CCTs) are heralded in international education policies as key to addressing teacher shortages and increasing quality and diversity in the profession. Using a qualitative approach inspired by Ball’s discursive facet of policy enactment, interview responses from 23 Australian teacher educators were examined. The aim was to determine how these teacher educators spoke and thought about CCTs as well as how they discursively pos…
Re-using co-design in initial teacher education
Co-design as an effective tool in supporting partnerships is experiencing a renaissance in contemporary Initial Teacher Education (ITE) policy reform. While not a new construct, the current re-use of co-design represents a contemporary shift in collaboration, emphasising inclusivity and adaptability by integrating critical thinking and problem-solving with content and pedagogy. Despite its growing popularity, co-design's potential in supporting d…
Staffing rural and remote school communities
Career change teachers
Teacher shortages are a global problem. One solution to this problem, offered in Australian policy, is the notion of the career change teacher (CCT). This study analyses the responses from 23 teacher educators who were asked what they themselves thought might enable and/or constrain this cohort entering teaching as well as those they saw for the pre-service teachers and the systems of both the university and the school. Data were analysed inducti…
How are teacher shortages in hardest-to-staff schools represented in (inter)national policy documents from England and Australia
ABSTARCTTeacher shortages are a significant global problem disproportionally affecting “hardest-to-staff” schools and subjects. To better understand (inter)national policy responses to teacher shortages, this paper uses a Bacchian-inspired approach to critically examine proposals suggested as solutions in policy documents from England and Australia, and thus how the problem is being thought about especially in relation to hardest-to-staff context…
An Exploration of the Experiences of Substitute Teachers
This article reports on a systematic review of literature on the experiences of substitute teachers, also known as casual or relief teachers. This occupational group are an essential part of school improvement efforts, allowing release time for other teachers to participate in professional learning, complete administrative duties, and attend to personal matters. Although a ubiquitous component of the teaching workforce, little is known about thei…
Highlighting the voice of Indigenous communities for education
The issue of how to best address Indigenous education needs has long been a public debate. There has been much discussion in the educational system, at policy levels and at universities. However, little is known about the perception of Indigenous peoples in regard to the education that their children are receiving or how to incorporate their traditional knowledge inside the classroom. This paper shares such a study and explores the views of Indig…
On the shoulder of giants
Teacher educators are an occupational group who appear to suffer from an identity crisis. They do not seem to be able to agree on what their role or professional learning needs are. This situation has dire consequences for the next generation of teacher educators who enter the field in the same rather haphazard and ad hoc way as the ones before. This phenomenon might further explain why it has been called the hidden profession with reports of a g…
Developing credit based micro-credentials for the teaching profession
The impact of the pandemic has revealed just how important teachers are to a nation’s economic productivity and to the very social fabric and well-being of any society. It has also revealed more starkly the socio-economic and digital divides that teachers continue to address daily to support student learning. How then, to best support teachers own professional learning in complex times? This is a question that has long been asked—but now requires…
L'affiche électorale
L'efficacité politique des affiches électorales ne résulte pas simplement du pouvoir de l'image. Cet article montre que l'adhésion et l'action politiques sont aussi le produit d'un engagement avec les objets électoraux qui mobilise les corps. Prenant appui sur une ethnographie fine des élections de 2015 dans l'archipel tanzanien de Zanzibar, il associe une biographie des affiches électorales - se focalisant tout particulièrement sur la vie social…

Drugs Importation and the Bifurcation of Risk
Qualitative research was conducted with 15 persons convicted of serious offences in connection with drugs importation into the UK, and with 10 informants of Her Majesty's Customs and Excise, with appropriate safeguards.1 Objectives included an assessment of smugglers' (planners' and organizers') perceptions about ‘risk’ and how they attempted to reduce risk. Two conceptually distinct forms of risk were identified. Strategic risk is the risk to th…
