Biography

Lecturer in Teacher Education

Catherine is a lecturer in Teacher Education at the University of Glasgow, working in initial teacher education, PGDE and the Masters in Inclusion programmes. Prior to this, she was a secondary school teacher in Scotland for 23 years, working as an English teacher and an Additional Support for Learning teacher. Her research focuses on widening participation to HE for highly able Scottish young people from areas of high deprivation.

Catherine has a PhD in Education, an MEd in Inclusive Education from the University of Glasgow, PGCE in English from the University of Strathclyde and MA in English Literature and Philosophy, University of Glasgow.

Research interests

Catherine's research interests revolve around inclusive education and the experiences of young people in schools. She is interested in how widening participation to HE (Higher Education) for young people from areas of high deprivation illuminates understandings of ability, including high ability, talent and potential. Her research interests include working in secondary schools, HE, and initial and continuing teacher education. As an active member of SNAP (Scottish Network for Able Pupils), she is interested in the role of teacher practices and how these can operate within educational structures to influence educational opportunities, and in how teacher knowledge and beliefs might change and impact these practices.  Catherine is also interested in the effects of educational technologies, particularly Generative AI, on teaching and learning in Higher Education.
