This rubric outlines a set of capabilities to do with the evidence-based practice of explicit instruction.

This practice guide provides evidence-based, practical advice for teachers on how to teach sentence combining in the context of their classrooms.

AERO’s ‘science of learning and development’ project will support teachers and educators to incorporate knowledge about how brains and bodies develop into their practice, beginning with early childhood education and care (ECEC) services.

ECEC services often have cultures of sharing and discussing evidence, but less support is available for early childhood educators to actively change their practice based on evidence.  

Our national survey has found that Australian schools often have cultures of sharing and discussing evidence, but less support is available for teachers to actively change their practice based on evidence.

Research, and the evidence it provides, helps educators be more intentional in their practice. It also guides important policy decisions to improve children’s outcomes and life trajectories.

Examples of practice demonstrate effective practice in different education settings. You can use them to think about how to apply the practice in your own context.

Implementation checklists are a list of practical steps you can take to support the implementation of an evidence-based practice in your setting.

Gabrielle Sinclair, CEO of the Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA), provides insight into 'what works' for continuous quality improvement in early childhood education and care.

Our experiences in the early years shape the developing brain, laying foundations for lifelong learning and resilience.

Australia needs high-quality evidence in early years education that can guide policy and practice decisions and help to improve children’s outcomes and life trajectories.
