Corinne Angier is a PhD Researcher at the University of Stirling, focusing on Global Citizenship Education (GCE) in mathematics classrooms. Her research examines how secondary mathematics teachers in Scotland can integrate global issues into their teaching, supported by a collaborative PhD funded by SGSSS and Scotdec. She holds a Master’s in Mathematics Education and has over a decade of teaching experience in both secondary schools (primarily in challenging Yorkshire settings) and higher education (HE).

Education:

• BSc in Agriculture and Forestry
• MSc in Forestry and Land Management
• PGCE in Mathematics (Sheffield Hallam University)
• MSc in Mathematics Education
• Current PhD in Education (University of Stirling)

Her research interests center on social justice in mathematics education, curriculum policy, and teacher professional development. She has led projects like the Primary Mathematics Specialist Training Programme (MaST) and acted as the maths lead for Teach First in Yorkshire. She collaborates with organizations like the Maths Hub and White Rose Maths, emphasizing practical classroom strategies for embedding global citizenship.

Research Trends: Her work spans from recent studies on curriculum policy and GCE integration to foundational analyses of classroom dynamics, student identity, and assessment practices in mathematics education. Themes include equity, pedagogical innovation, and the role of narrative inquiry in understanding learning experiences.

Awards:

• SGSSS Scholarship (2018)

Teaching & Grants: Corinne has managed DfE-funded teacher training programs and contributed to Initial Teacher Education (ITE) at multiple universities. Her current PhD research is supported by SGSSS, aligning with Scotland’s Learning for Sustainability policy.
