Formative assessment is a teaching practice that evidence says makes a difference. In this video, Sue Davis explains how she uses formative assessment in her mathematics lessons.

See how Amber Turner, a French teacher at Alfred Deakin High School, uses spacing and retrieval practice in her classes.

This project aims to use research to help schools and school systems support students struggling with literacy and numeracy.

This practice resource outlines some strategies to embed early numeracy in your early childhood education and care setting.

How do we close equity gaps in learning and development, and best support children from disadvantaged backgrounds to catch up to their more advantaged peers?

Spacing and retrieval involves separating learning over multiple lessons and providing opportunities for students to recall what they have learned. This helps to commit learning to long-term memory.

This checklist is a list of practical steps teachers can take to support the adoption of the evidence-based practice spacing and retrieval in their setting.

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.

Literacy and numeracy are critical foundations, equipping students to access learning in all other parts of the curriculum.

Numeracy is the application of mathematical concepts, with skills developing along trajectories from birth. This guide outlines practices to support numeracy in early learning settings.
