Transferring Learning and Taking Innovation to Scale

This booklet is part of a national project, carried out by CUREE and commissioned by The Innovation Unit, that is exploring both research and practice. The project is bringing together the evidence from education research and an analysis of the approaches to transfer and going to scale currently in use by the key national education agencies in England in 2006-07. The aim is to develop a more widely shared understanding of existing practice and of the evidence base about transfer and scaling up of innovative and/or effective practice in education.

Further Education and Skills

Recent research in the sector

CUREE was commissioned by the Education & Training Foundation to research the key issues in the teaching of maths and English in the sector. Conducted very rapidly and in partnership with EmCETT we interviewed policy makers and experts, reviewed the international research evidence and consulted leaders and practitioners across the sector. We think the report provides a fascinating window into how maths and English teachers and their leaders are thinking about the new level 2 challenges.
