Biography:
Dympna is Senior Lecturer in the School of Education where she is Head of Research, Director of the Structured PhD programme and the newly established MSc/PhD in Children and Youth Studies. She is Director of the Social Science Research Centre (SSRC) in the College of Human Sciences. Her specialist field is sociology, with an interest in childhood studies/children's rights and identities and implications for their educational well-being. She is an alternate nominee to the National Children's Advisory Council. Her work is informed by a critical social justice perspective and a commitment to education as a key site in the (re)production of children's social and learner identities. She has published nationally and internationally in the areas of children's voice and citizenship and migrant children's identities/belonging in and through the education system. Her recent book 'Immigration and Schooling in the Republic of Ireland (2011) provides a comprehensive overview of theory, policy and practice in this area. Dympna is co-editor (with Wendy Luttrell, CUNY) of a forthcoming special issue on 'Children and 'value': education in neo-liberal times' to be published in the journal Children&Society (2013). Other recent book publications include New Managerialism in Education: Commercialisation, Care and Gender (Palgrave, 2012) co-authored with Kathleen Lynch and Bernie Grummell. |
