Research topic: A qualitative study of primary school children’s perceptions of ‘fundamental British values’
My research explores pupils’ perceptions of ‘fundamental British values’ (fBv) in contrasting primary schools in the South West of England. The aim of my study is to gain an insight into these perceptions and the related concepts of Britishness, citizenship and identities, and contribute to the literature in this area through a multi-method research project foregrounding children’s voices.
Research supervisors: Professor Katherine Tyler, Dr Narzanin Massoumi
