Sophie is a researcher based in the Education Data Lab within the Wales Institute for Social and Economic Research and Data (WISERD) and funded by ADR Wales. She contributes to the Education theme to explore educational outcomes for young people, particularly around themes of subject choice and attainment. Since completing a PhD in Physics Education at Cardiff University in 2019, Sophie’s research has centred around young people’s educational experiences and outcomes–in particular, how different factors shape young people’s attainment, interest, subject choice and sense of opportunity.
