Overview

‘I think there is a huge prize waiting to be claimed by teachers. By collecting better evidence about what works best, and establishing a culture where this evidence is used as a matter of routine, we can improve outcomes for children, and increase professional independence.’

Dr Ben Goldacre

Allow your teachers to demonstrate with the support of hard evidence that what they are doing for pupils is having a positive impact on progress. By doing so you will not only feel sure that time and resources are being used efficiently, but they can prove that they are adding value for pupils and enhancing their own professional learning.

This training resource will provide your team with step-by-step guidance on planning, implementing and evaluating action research in their own classrooms.

Benefits

With the support of exemplars and case studies, these training materials will enable teachers to:

  • identify topics for research
  • consider what methodology would best suit the project and plan resources
  • know how to collect, collate and interpret data
  • evaluate, draw conclusions and disseminate findings
  • look for improvements, scale up activities.
