Rurality and resilience in education: place-based partnerships and agency to moderate time and space constraints

Liesel Ebersöhn, Ronél Ferreira · 2012 · Perspectives in Education

Summary. Rural schools take longer to implement and sustain resilience-building strategies compared to urban schools, facing constraints from time, space, and place. Teachers in rural areas build resilience through relationships and prioritized needs, but must reconfigure place and agency to overcome geographic and resource barriers. When teachers adapt to local conditions and leverage available relationships, they successfully negotiate ongoing challenges and improve student resilience outcomes.
