Sue's background is in early childhood and tertiary education. Over many years, Sue has engaged in research with children and young people, particularly in the years before school and the early years of school. Much of this research has focused on children's experiences and expectations, as well as those of families, educators and communities at times of transition. She is co-author of Transition to school: Perceptions, expectations and experiences (with Bob Perry), co-editor of Transitions to school - International research, policy and practice (with Bob Perry and Anne Petriwskyj) and Varied perspectives on play and learning: Theory and research on early years education (with Bob Perry and Ole Fredrik Lillemyr). Dorothy Bottrell is a Senior Lecturer in Social Pedagogy, in the College of Education, Victoria University Melbourne and Honorary Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Education and Social Work, University of Sydney. Her background is in secondary teaching, juvenile justice, youth and community work and TAFE teaching in community services.

Her research has focused on the resilience of marginalised young people, including theoretical and qualitative empirical work that centres young people's accounts of school, community and service systems. She is currently researching the interrelationship of resilience and responsibility, using political ecology and social justice frameworks; and is associate researcher with Kitty te Riele and Vicky Plows (Victoria Institute) on alternative education programs.
