Our mission is to generate evidence and insights that can be used to improve outcomes for future generations everywhere, and to support positive change across education systems.
Our long history, vast experience and pioneering methods have established our reputation as an authoritative, trusted and respected voice in education. Today that reputation is enhanced with an unmatched depth and breadth of specialist education knowledge, talent and methodological expertise.
We use our expertise to produce high-quality, independent, research and insights to inform key decisions makers about issues across the education system, including:
- Accountability
- Assessment
- Classroom Practice
- Education to Employment
- Social Mobility
- School Funding
- School Workforce
- Systems and Structures
Our clients include government departments and agencies at international, national and local levels, third sector organisations, private and public companies, employers and other organisations with an interest in education. They all benefit from the full range of our expert and professional services.
As an independent, not-for-profit organisation we invest any surplus funds directly back into our programme of research to address key questions in education – delivering new knowledge to help build better futures - and in increasing our impact and support for policy makers and practitioners.
