Further education teachers' accounts of their professional identities
Mucking in and mucking out: Vocational learning in Animal Care
FE teachers talking about students’ learning

The research project is investigating the experiences of learning and working in further education colleges in Wales and the data used in this paper were collected during the first three months of the project from in‐depth, semi‐structure…

Each year, around 1,000 Scholarships of up to £3,000 each, were awarded to serving classroom teachers to engage in supported, school‐focused research.

Clients, claimants or learners? Exploring the joined‐up working of New Deal for 18–24 year olds
This paper explores the ‘joined‐up thinking’ and attempts at ‘joined‐up working’ that policy architects recommend for the successful operationalization of the New Deal for 18–24 year olds. In particular, it examines the difficulties arising around the full‐time education and training option. The research project reports upon the ‘implementation gaps’, in particular the workings of Employment Service Personnel and College staff who strive to inter…
Investigating the Patterns of Differential Attainment of Boys and Girls at School
Recent research on the differential attainment of boys and girls at school has produced findings in significant contrast to the standard account on which most previous explanations of the differences between boys and girls were based. Put simply, much previous research may have been attempting to explain differences whose nature was incompletely understood. The result, if these new findings are accepted, is that further research is now necessary …
Reappraising the Apparent Underachievement of Boys at School
This article challenges two widely-held beliefs about the differences in the performance of boys and girls at school. The 'gap' between the achievement of boys and girls is not growing, and may be shrinking. The gap is not predominantly a problem of low achievement, nor is it uniformly distributed across the range of attainments. The gap, in favour of girls, mainly appears at the higher levels in any assessment. The change in understanding of the…
Pleasing the Students: Teachers' Orientaton to Classroom Life in Adult Education
It is noted that existing sociological research on classrooms has focused too narrowly on compulsory schooling with the result that we have no data showing the rituals and routines of Adult Classrooms or the ways that teachers cope and resolve them. The paper presents fieldnote and interview data from a small ethnographic study of the two Adult Evening classes. The data suggest that in contrast to the teacher of school aged pupils, who seeks cont…
