Welcome to the CUREE website

Our mission centres on promoting the use of evidence by building bridges between academic research and professional practice. We support practice-driven action research, develop tools for Continuing Professional Development (CPD), for organisational leadership and for teaching and learning. We believe in modelling good practice in everything we do and our work in consultancy, advice, development and training in the use of research and evidence is consistently informed by the principles underpinning effective mentoring and coaching in education. We work in collaboration with a range of individuals and organisations. Our clients include national organisations such as the General Teaching Council (GTC), the government, in particular the DCSF and DIUS, the National College for School Leadership (NCSL), the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS) and the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA). We also work with schools, networks and Local Authorities across the country.
