About me
After a career within the hospitality industry, Rob Walker chose to switch fields into something more aspirational for his daughter, Evie; education.
Due to his disability, he has experienced a myriad of educational formulations, including: home schooling; no schooling; hospital schools; on-site industry training; sixth-form; further education; universities; and parochial education. He thanks his disability for providing him a deep sense of empathy and consideration.
Currently undertaking his doctorate at UoS, Rob's research interests are extremism, neoconservatism, neoliberalism, masculinities, misogyny. Other interests include research into educational inequalities, raging against the machine, Aston Villa and procrastination.
