A key theme across this domain is the development and support of applied and practice-based research with a bearing on educational issues that are urgent and important:
Our projects aspire to provide the best possible education for all learners and for the development of a curriculum that will be of maximum benefit for society
Our research on classroom climate and pupil behaviour in schools investigates the extent to which there is ‘a right to learn’ for all pupils
Our mathematics education projects focus on fostering appreciation for, as well as confidence and competence in, mathematics for all
Our work in English education explores literature's lasting effect on learners
Our research into sport and health examines motivation for, and the lifelong impact of physical activity on health and well-being.
We also have a long-lasting research interest in lesson and learning study, an increasingly influential model of continuing professional development for teachers.
