Abstract

The paper aims to shed led onto practical and ethical research considerations of engaging disabled young people from ethno-culturally and ethno-racially diverse backgrounds in research concerning school matters and issues of diversity via a multi-method qualitative approach. The author explores how she challenged methodological boundaries encountered throughout the research process by considering (a) imaginative combined with conventional approaches, (b) research with, for, and by minoritized disabled students, (c) establishing a trustworthy research space, and (d) research rigor and reflexivity.
