Unprecedented number of CUREE research papers at BERA 2011
CUREE was very busy at BERA this year presenting 5 papers on 4 different research projects. CUREE doesn't do research unless it has the potential to enhance schools (or colleges) and impact positively on students.

Unprecedented number of CUREE research papers at BERA 2011
CUREE aims to spend about 1/3 of its effort on conducting research (we do similar amounts of consultancy and CPD) so it's fairly remarkable that, this year, we had 5 papers based on 4 different research projects to present to the British Educational Research Association annual conference at the London Institute in September 2011.
Implementing Curriculum Change
Between 2007 and 2011, CUREE conducted a wide range of surveys, focus groups, probes and synthesis work involving over 15,000 learners and 570 teaching staff.
For the 2011 BERA conference we present a summary of our findings from across the different separate technical reports. We describe the approaches taken in each of the three research strands in more detail in the second section of this report. Together, these evidence strands have yielded a consolidated body of data and a range of findings about curriculum development.
Elevation - a service for CPD providers
What makes my CPD offer stand out in the crowd?
With their new budget holding responsibilities, schools are scrutinising more than ever the quality of the CPD they access. They will want the best – and they will be increasingly discerning as they draw down your provision.
How will you match up to this scrutiny?
