Further Project Details

We would be interested in collaborating on projects that could help teachers and policymakers understand the need for a broad evidence base to inform practice and policy, i.e. a conceptual piece of research that would highlight the different sources of evidence that are used in education and how they link to different teaching strategies and foster different student outcomes.

We would also be interested in a project exploring the role of the Chartered College of Teaching in the sector, including stakeholder consultations to better understand our role and influence.

We would also be open to exploring projects to help us understand how we can increase diversity in the teaching profession.

We are also open to discussing other ideas from interested researchers.
