Writing & Publications
This page brings together selected writing and conversations that reflect my thinking on education, inclusion, leadership, and systems design. The selection is indicative rather than comprehensive.
Podcasts & Conversations
Selected podcast conversations exploring science education, inclusion, and systems-level practice.
Practical learning & productive failure
Guest appearance on Twinkl’s STEM Conversations podcast, exploring messy learning, productive failure, and the role of mistakes in building scientific understanding.
Working as a scientist: what it is and why it matters
Conversation on scientific identity, authentic scientific practice in schools, and widening participation in science education.
Writing & Publications
I write about education, inclusion, leadership, and systems design across academic, practitioner, and public-facing contexts.
My writing explores how institutional design shapes learning, identity, and participation and the consequences of those choices over time.
Why clear GenAI guidance matters to neurodivergent students. And how to get it right
An analysis of how inconsistent institutional guidance on generative AI disproportionately impacts neurodivergent students, with design principles for creating clearer, more equitable policy frameworks.
Opening a Can of Worms! Authentic science learning and the role of productive failure
A practitioner-focused exploration of authentic science learning, uncertainty, and productive failure in classroom contexts, grounded in science education research and professional practice.
Ongoing writing
Alongside commissioned and professional publications, I write regularly on Substack, exploring education, inclusion, leadership, neurodiversity, and systems design in greater depth. This space is used for longer-form reflection, synthesis, and work-in-progress thinking that sits outside the constraints of institutional publishing.
