Personal profile
Overview
I am a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow in sociology. My three year project, explores how working-class pupils in formal education in London, Rochdale and Morecambe imagine their future transitions from college into higher education and/or the labour market. It examines the social and cultural factors that mediate experiences of education and transitions into work, exploring what routes out of college students think are available to them and how said routes are informed by race, place and gender.
