Teaching and Learning Research Programme

CUREE were commissioned by TLRP to create taster documents for their website, which introduce practitioners to the evidence coming out of the Programme and suggest ways in which they can use the evidence to improve their practice. The TLRP website provides an easy to use index where practitioners can link through to tasters covering their area of interest.

Learning and Skills Improvement Service

CUREE advise on the content of LSIS's Quality Improvement Journal and produces the Inside Evidence pages. Inside Evidence provides summaries of research evidence relevant to current issues facing practitioners, leaders and policy makers in the Further Education system. In addition we provide LSIS staff with a bi-monthly briefing on the research landscape as it relates their work. Our growing understanding of the available evidence and gaps in this sector in turn informs LSIS’s own research programme.

We work with the GTC to create interactive and non-linear summaries of high quality, large scale pedagogical research where all key findings are illustrated with practitioner case studies. We also work with the GTC to help develop teachers’ awareness and use of research including through the creation of CPD activities. We continually work together to evaluate how teachers are making use of the evidence to inform their professional learning and develop their practice.
