Biography

I joined the University of Glasgow in January 2017 from a professional background in early learning and childcare, having worked with children and young people aged 0 - 14 in various practitioner, leadership and management roles in Scotland, England, Czech Republic and the Netherlands.  My undergraduate study of Social Policy informs my understanding of Childhood Practice as a policy-driven field.  More recently, my Masters dissertation focused on childcare practitioners’ perceptions of numeracy.

Research interests

In relation to scholarship of teaching and learning, I am currently investigating professional learning journeys with colleagues in the University of Glasgow Childhood Practice teaching team.

My doctoral research focuses on the experiences of modern apprentices working in the Scottish childcare sector.
