Education
Education research is often practitioner research, carried out by someone inside the setting they are studying. That creates real methodological questions about positionality and consent that examiners expect to see addressed directly.

Research with children or in schools carries additional ethical requirements in every European jurisdiction, including consent from guardians and often approval from the institution as well as the university.
Positionality needs to be written as a methodological section, not a disclaimer. Where you are an insider in the setting, that shapes access, data and interpretation and should be analysed as such.
