Biography

After spending several years as a police practitioner for the Metropolitan Police Service, Stewart transitioned into a role in academia to continue working alongside police officers and to support their development. Since joining Middlesex, Stewart has sat at the helm of the DHEP and Detective DHEP (Graduate Diplomas) within the PEQF programme, as their programme leader. Now a senior lecturer, Stewart has attained SFHEA status with Advance HE and has now embarked on a doctoral pathway.

Stewart fully appreciates the relative struggles of combining full-time work with part-time study, having attained his first degree, as a mature student, whilst training and working for the Police. Since then, Stewart has continued learning, in a part-time capacity, attaining two Masters qualifications in English and in Education, the latter with distinction.
