Teaching and learning toolkit

The Teaching and Learning Toolkit offers an objective review of various interventions and resources. It provides key findings to support teachers and senior leaders make decisions about the appropriateness of interventions for their settings.

The toolkit includes an informative guide and accompanying video which clearly explain how it should be used. It is practical and easy to understand, and incorporates a visual key to highlight cost, strength of evidence and impact for each intervention.

The toolkit considers a range of factors for each intervention and resource, including:

• The effectiveness of the approach
• How the resource can be implemented in your setting
• Cost
• How secure the evidence is

It also provides information on what the intervention is, the key findings and suggests relevant Education Endowment Foundation studies.
