Abstract

This paper reconsiders seemingly obsolete paradigm wars in education research, as a means to explain the continuing peripheralization of ‘context’ driven (Koutsouris and Norwich, 2018) qualitative and teacher-centred models of enquiry. Quietly enduring disparate philosophical and polemical positions in British education research, help to perpetuate tensions in the production and implementation of education policy into practice.
