Power and relationships
- Teachers aren't equal in school
- but more powerful than pupils because of age, experience and resposibility within school
- They have a legal resposiblilty and duty of care towards the young people they teach
______________________________________________________________________________
- nature of the classroom reinforces the power of the teacher
- e.g my claasroom so reseacher may be seen as a trespasser
______________________________________________________________________________
- teachers often over worked
- resulting in them being less cooperative even if they want to help
______________________________________________________________________________
- teachers are used to being inspected
- - so they are experienced enough to put on a show which could effect the validity of the results
