About Andreas Bergh

Andreas Bergh is Associate Professor (Docent) and Senior Lecturer of Education at Örebro University. After achieving his PhD in 2010, he worked as a Senior Lecturer at Örebro University and as a Post-doctoral researcher at Uppsala University. Prior to time in the academy, Bergh has worked as teacher and school leader in compulsory school, and as Director of Education at the National Agency for Education. In higher education, he teaches in PhD-courses, teacher education and the national school leadership training programme.

Berghs' area of research is in the field of Curriculum Theory with a specific interest in education policy, issues of quality and the professional roles of teachers and school leaders. He is currently engaged in studies of higher education, teachers’ anti-racist actions and school segregation. In a previous research project, he studied the use of promotion and prevention programmes in school. A research interest that has developed over time, as a result of Bergh's previous research, is how the juridification of education condition teachers' and school leaders' professionalism.

Bergh is on the editorial committee for the research journal Utbildning & Demokrati (Education & Democracy) and a member of the research groups Utbildning och Demokrati (Education and Democracy, Örebro University) and STEP (Studies in Educational Policy and Educational Philosophy, Uppsala University).
