abstract="This paper presents a case study of one mother's experience of engaging with her children's schools after leaving a long-term relationship characterised by years of  family violence perpetrated by the children's father. We interviewed Bernadette as  part of an ongoing study of parents' experiences of school engagement during family  separation and divorce. Her family circumstances and the role the children's schools  played in that story merit consideration by educators, school leaders and education  policy makers. Informed by theories of everyday cultural practices and sociological  studies of gendered power relations in education, we argue that gender politics and  organisational strategies for keeping parents 'in their place' can significantly  contribute to systemic failures and school cultures that reinscribe the effects of  family violence.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
