Research:

The Centre plans to commission specific research around school leadership and school improvement and change. At the moment, it is looking at personalised education, blended and hybrid learning, coaching and the impact of COVID 19 and lockdowns on the wellbeing and progress of students in all phases.

Positioning ourselves between research, policy and practice means that many of our Masters and Doctoral students, along with the laboratory schools  and others  affiliated to the Centre, will be producing interesting action research through the day to day work of the Centre.
