• Access and attainment
• Internationalisation and mobility
• The state, schooling and parenting
• Identity, difference and the spaces of schooling
• Knowledge economies and institutional contexts
The conference is supported by the Centre for Research in Identity, Community, Society (CRICS),
based in the Department of Geography, Loughborough University, the Social and Cultural Geography
Research Group (SCGRG), the Children, Youth and Family Working Group (CYFWG) and the History and
Philosophy of Geography Research Group (HPGRG) of the Royal Geographical Society.
