M. Wade Mahon – Palgrave Macmillan, 2024
This book documents an informal system of education that emerged in Ireland between the late 1750s and the end of the century, a system that operated largely without funding or direction by church or state. In a society as divided as eighteenth-century Ireland, it is remarkable that such a system could succeed, paving the way for the more formal…

Hatfield, Mary – History of Education, 2022
This article focuses on an underexplored aspect of the Catholic convent school experience, namely the kinds of socialisation and regulation of emotion maintained within the convent community.

Nathan Gavigan; Sarahjane Belton; Una Britton; Shane Dalton; Johann Issartel – European Physical Education Review, 2024
Although there is a plethora of tools available to assess children's movement competence (MC), the literature suggests that many have significant limitations (e.g. not being practical for use in many 'real-world' settings). The FMS[superscript 2] assessment tool has recently been developed as a targeted solution to many of the existing barriers…

Clavel, Jose G.; Flannery, Darragh – British Educational Research Journal, 2023

The relationship between single-sex…

Clavel, Jose G.; Flannery, Darragh – Journal of School Choice, 2023
A common decision parents face is the choice of school for their children. In Ireland, somewhat uniquely in an international context, this choice includes a large number of state-funded single-sex schools, to the point that this can be considered a realistic option for many parents. Focusing on secondary-level education and using the PISA 2018…

The study was based in the first-year…

Banks, Joanne; Frawley, Denise; McCoy, Selina – International Journal of Inclusive Education, 2015
In line with the increasing policy emphasis on inclusive education, there is now a greater focus on how best to provide for students special educational needs (SEN) in mainstream schools. However, there is little consensus internationally as to the most equitable way in which to support these students. Despite ongoing evaluations of the existing…

Tormey, Roland; Gleeson, Jim – Gender and Education, 2012
The growing literature on the gendering of citizenship and citizenship education highlights that western notions of "citizenship" have often been framed in a way that implicitly excludes women. At the same time, insofar as feminist writers have addressed citizenship, they have tended to see it in largely local and national terms. While…
