Centre for Teaching, Learning and Curriculum (TLC)

The Centre for Teaching, Learning and Curriculum (TLC) is concerned with questions relating to education in schools, universities, community and out-of-school contexts, including a focus on issues of social justice. We research the learning of individuals, groups and systems from a range of perspectives, including practitioner research.

Our areas of research

  • subject pedagogy
  • school leadership
  • teacher education
  • professional learning
  • teacher educator learning
  • neuroscience and education
  • technology and education
  • the climate emergency/global challenges and education

The centre benefits from methodological diversity alongside common interests in de-colonisation and indigenous pedagogies and perspectives.

A key aim of the Centre is to provide a space for the sharing of ideas and expertise, promoting joint writing and joint research bids.

The Centre is a home for many doctoral students in the School of Education.
