Professor of Quantitative Social Geography, University of Bristol

I trained as a social geographer looking at the application of spatial statistics and geodemographics in marketing, public policy and urban geography. More recent work has been in the geographies of education and learning, focusing on choice and markets in educational systems, measures of social segregation and of ethnic polarisation, and on supporting quantitative and statistical literacy amongst geographers and undergraduate social scientists. Recently I have been mapping and analysing Covid data in the UK, looking at which ethnic groups have been most affected (and infected). I am also a licensed lay minister in the Church of England so have some theological interests too.
