what does ‘misbehaviour’ sound like? in new open access work i ask this question in the context of school discipline policies, looking at how ideologies of ‘im/proper language’ and ‘im/proper behaviour’ coalesce and get co-constructed with one another. doi.org/10.1080/096202…

This is not common sense - it's a deliberate choice to erase the other languages of the United Kingdom, and to devalue the languages that migrants bring to the country.

a reminder that school behaviour policies can be ableist as fuck

deficit thinking is an industry. through educational consultancy, academic knowledge production, teacher textbooks, and intervention programmes, ideologies of linguistic deficit get converted into economic profit. 💸💰💵🤑

Was interviewed by Daniel Midgley for a Spotify podcast on Unequal Englishes. My part begins at 1:50. "There are lots of Englishes out there, but the way we approach varieties of English sets learners up to fail." open.spotify.com/episode/1dkrbx…
