This book is one of the first of its kind to examine the
aspirations of refugee background students and accompanies them as
they journey through the on-shore stage of settlement, enrolment
and participation in the Australian education system. It begins
with students' experiences of on-shore settlement, followed by the
move into schooling and finally, the subsequent transition into
Australian higher education. Transitioning into higher education is
a challenge for many students, particularly for those from
under-represented equity groups. For refugee background students,
navigating in, through and out of higher education can be
particularly complex and challenging. Drawing on rich case studies
from longitudinal research into refugee youth and the academic and
professional staff in schools and universities who support them,
the book provides powerful and compelling narratives and insights
into this journey. It untangles the complex nature of transition
for students of refugee background in higher education, locating it
within broader social trends of increasing social and cultural
diversity, as well as government practices and policies concerning
the educational resettlement of refugees.
