    The focus of this study was to centre the voices and experiences of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in flexi school context. The voices prominent in this study are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander educative staff in flexi schools and my voice, as an Aboriginal researcher. Flexi schools are engaging with high numbers of Indigenous people, yet this context of schooling is relatively absent from the broader Indigenous education discourse. This qualitative study explores the experiences of Indigenous staff in flexi schools in Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia. Using autoethnography, I documented my experiences as an Aboriginal education researcher using yarning methodology in institutionalised education settings to consider new uses of Indigenist methodology and identify practical implications for Indigenous researchers using Indigenous ways of being, knowing and doing in settings that have historically perpetuated exclusion, imperialism and racism
