The education of children from military service families: lessons from the international literature
This paper explores the international research base on the educational experiences of the children of current and former armed forces personnel, henceforth referred to as Service children. In England, Service children are recognised as an under-represented group in higher education. However, while UK research into the experiences of Service children has addressed questions such as wellbeing and family functioning during periods of separation or transition, comparatively little attention has been given to the educational impacts of Service life. This paper considers the context for Service children as an under-represented group in higher education before turning to the international research base, focusing particularly on the four countries that, along with the United Kingdom, comprise the Five Eyes (United States of America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand). These countries are broadly comparable in terms of culture, military structure and geopolitical engagement

The formation of heroes and the myth of national identity
This paper discusses sports hero formation in relation to national identity, arguing that it can be a critical component of the development of a hero. A netnographic approach, that encompassed a number of virtual spaces and methods of analyses, was utilised to examine the formation of sports heroes within the setting of a new professional sports team. Drawing upon the work of Joseph Campbell and Orrin E. Klapp, it contextualises the sporting hero in the wider narratives of hero typologies. It argues that the formation of sports heroes is shaped by established notions of national identity and longstanding mythological archetypes rather than heroes’ personal traits or deeds. Universal hero myths, furthermore, provide recognised narratives that frame the emergence of new heroes in otherwise very different societies
