MH&W Series Episode 4: Boundaries and Other Things
In this fascinating episode, Aga Buckley from Kingston University, London discusses the importance of maintaining appropriate boundaries as a means of supporting mental health and wellbeing. Aga specifically talks about the personal tutoring role, giving particular thought to how the role, and the expectations for the role have changed, and the impact this has had on maintaining boundaries.
Aga M. Buckley is a Senior Lecturer and Programme Leader in Academic Staff Development at Kingston University’s Learning and Teaching Enhancement Centre, where she teaches and assesses on university’s Advance HE-accredited courses while supporting other education development projects. She is seconded to her role from the Faculty of Health, Science, Social Care and Education, where she taught social work theory, social pedagogy, applied social work practice and law across post-qualifying, postgraduate and undergraduate courses in the Department of Social Work and Social Care.
Aga qualified as a social worker in 1999 with a Diploma in Social Work, followed by a degree in Social Pedagogy and specialised in mental health over the years. She completed postgraduate qualifications and a master’s in Advanced Mental Health Practice while working in acute psychiatric and front-line mental health in NHS and Local Authorities. She continues drawing on her practice experience in her External Examiner role in specialist post-qualifying courses with the University of
Manchester. She is a member of the British Association of Social Workers (BASW): Neurodivergent Social Workers Special Interest Group and Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Advisory Group while supporting various Kingston University’s EDI initiatives.
Aga is a Senior Fellow of
the Higher Education Academy and a lifelong learner.
She is
interested in novel ways for students and staff to learn from each other and through
relationships they build during their whole experience of Higher Education. Aga advocates for equity and
neuro-inclusion, often contesting uniformity in her personal life, social work,
and education. Her practice uses humanistic, relational approaches, favouring creative methods
and active, authentic learning strategies. Her doctoral research (data
collection stage) focuses on the lived experiences of compassion fatigue
among early-career social workers in England.
