What is the impact of labels placed upon mature female students in college-based higher education settings in the UK?
Reflecting on her own lived experience, and the experiences of others, author Jacqueline Dodding explores how mature female students, who did not follow the traditional university route, navigate re-entry into education, and the impact this has had on their multiple identities including student, partner, wife, mother, and carer.
Re-imagining Potential discusses the barriers faced at continuing education at 18, why these students have chosen to re-engage now, and the impact of the various labels placed upon them. Offering a discussion of the problems with the “one size fits all” approach to engaging with further study, this book is ideal reading for students of Education Studies, Gender Studies, Sociology, and higher education policy makers.
