Prioritising Student Voice: "Tween" Children's Perspectives on School Success
Sargeant, Jonathon
Education 3-13, v42 n2 p190-200 2014
This paper presents the findings of a study of the perspectives of Australian, English and New Zealand "tweens" in response to one question, "what makes people muck up at school?" Arguing for the increased prioritisation of children's voices in educational planning and provision, this paper provides, in children's own words, their perspectives on school success and classroom dynamics.
