Acknowledgements
This book has, for a number of reasons, taken a long time to write. I owe thanks to a range of people and organisations, without whom this book would not have been possible. The research reported in this book was made possible by funding from an Australian Research Council grant (DE150100926) undertaken in 2015, and I thank them for their support. I am, of course, forever appreciative to the principals, teachers, students and other colleagues who participated in the research project and who so willingly gave their views. At the time of the grant and the collection of data, I was employed by the University of South Australia—where I remain Adjunct Professor of Education. Two research fellows—Anne Morrison and Nayia Cominos— supported my research endeavours during this time and I am indebted to them for doing so.
