Further Project Details
We would be interested in collaborating on the following suggested projects:
1) to 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.
2) exploring the role of the Chartered College of Teaching in the sector, including stakeholder consultations to better understand our role and influence.
3) help us to understand how we can increase diversity in the teaching profession.
We are also open to discussing other ideas from interested researchers.
