This commissioned report provides an overview of the evidence underpinning a knowledge-rich curriculum and outlines the key design features and enablers to effectively enact a knowledge-rich curriculum in schools.

This explainer is the third in a series of 5 on the key components of a deliberate and structured approach to implementation. It outlines the importance of understanding and responding to school-specific enablers and barriers to implementation.

By examining literacy and numeracy results across assessments, we can better understand the performance of Australian students over time; we can pinpoint areas of national strength and weakness and improve Australia’s educational outcomes.

This research report uses evidence to provide guidance for secondary school leaders in making decisions about staffing, timetabling and intensity when delivering interventions in schools.

This report aims to guide and catalyse further work towards building a better early childhood education and care (ECEC) system to serve all Australian children and families.

Explains the domains of children’s learning and development that are covered by the early childhood learning trajectories.

This explainer focuses on establishing and maintaining classroom rules, describing how rules allow teachers to clearly state the behaviour expectations for all students in the learning environment.

This commissioned research report provides a summary of the recommended course content for initial teacher education (ITE) based on the research evidence base.

This national research snapshot collects evidence on evidence use in Australian 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.  

Partnering with Learning First, we investigated issues influencing the effective use of evidence in policy development through a desktop review and interviews with senior policymakers.
