Ostracism in the teacher’s lounge and spiritual-emotional leadership
Most people can easily remember their experiences of being overlooked, excluded or ignored by other individuals or groups. Such experiences are often labeled ‘ostracism’ (Robinson et al., 2013) and...
A Systematic Review of Ecological Momentary Assessment Procedures of Self-Harm (With and Without Suicidal Intent) Studies in Adolescents and Young Adults
Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) captures real-time data on thoughts, emotions, and behaviours within individuals' natural environments. Although EMA has been increasingly used to examine self-harm, existing reviews have not focused specifically on adolescents. This systematic review examines EMA research on adolescent self-harm, focusing on methodological considerations and key risk and protective factors for self-harm. Five databases, plus…
“If You Haven’t Slept a Lot (…) You Don’t Want to Go Out for a Run, You Don’t Want to Ride a Bike, You Just Kind of Sit and You Just (…) Do Nothing”—Perceptions of 24-Hour Movement Behaviours Among Ad…
The importance of physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep behaviour in adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) has been explored in isolation. However, adolescents experience health benefits when these behaviours are balanced appropriately throughout the day, and are considered to be interconnected rather than isolated. The aim of this study was to investigate the perspectives of adolescents living with T1D towards these behaviours colle…
The career prospects of migrant, female academics from minority ethnic backgrounds in the UK’s higher education sector
While the under-representation of women in senior leadership roles in the UK higher education sector is well recognised, scant regard has been paid to how this impacts female academics from alternative ethnicities and from overseas. This paper aims to help address this by summarising the findings from an integrative review of published evidence concerning the career prospects of women who are migrant academics from UK minority ethnic backgrounds …
Teachers’ affective and physical well-being
Purpose This study aims to examine the role of teachers’ emotional intelligence (EI) and emotional labour (EL) strategies in their affective and physical well-being. Design/methodology/approach The quantitative data were collected from 436 primary school teachers. Likert-type scales were used to measure the variables. Confirmatory factor analyses were performed for the construct validity of the scales, and path analysis was used to test the hypot…
The Student Experiences of Teaching and Learning in Transnational Higher Education
Transnational higher education (TNHE) of UK universities has been noticeably expanding during the last two decades in the Arab Gulf region, but few studies investigated qualitatively the different ways in which students in that region experience both teaching and learning. The aim of this study is to understand the ways that students conceptualise their learning and educational experiences at a British TNHE in Qatar. Employing a phenomenographic …
Evaluating the feasibility of delivering a sleep education programme in secondary schools
Background: School-based sleep education programmes can promote the importance of sleep health and may improve adolescent sleep. To date, only limited research has examined the feasibility of integrating sleep programmes into the school curriculum. Objectives: This study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary efficacy of the Strathclyde intervention to encourage good sleep health in teenagers (SIESTA). Methods: A total 171 stude…
“Being” a Head of Department in an English University
This article takes the author’s personal experience of being a Head of Department (HOD) in an English University, and frames this experience as a transition narrative. The format draws on the work of Sandra Acker, who framed her own experience as a Head of Department in Canada, in three areas. Utilising literature both on Higher Education Management and the emotions of leadership, the article proposes that a focus on the personal affective side o…
Local authorities as actors in the emerging “school-led” system in England
Most research to date about the English government’s policy to make schools independent of local authorities (LAs) has looked at the “macro” level of national policy and at the “micro” level of the institution. The study of which this article is a part explores changes at the “meso” level of the locality. Over a period of six years, 52 semi-structured interviews were carried out with key actors at school, LA and local system levels in three areas…
Dream lucidity is associated with positive waking mood
Conceptualising leadership and emotions in higher education
In this conceptual article the authors outline an approach to leadership in higher education that foregrounds attention to wholeness and wellbeing, framing emotion as inherent to the practice of leadership, with all organizing actions inseparable from and influenced by emotion. The article is framed within findings from their research on wellbeing in schools and positive organizational scholarship that intentionally foregrounds virtues and positi…
The positions of primary and secondary schools in the English school field
In interviews as part of a research study of structural reform in England, some tension between primary head teachers and their secondary peers was evident. This was symptomatic of a long-standing difference in status between the two phases. At a time when relations between stakeholders in local systems are subject to change, we seek to understand anew why that might be the case and how the tension we found was evidence of a current difference of…
