Research

iStock_000003008509LargeEvidence was central to the Cambridge Primary Review. It is no less pivotal to CPRT’s quest to address its eight priorities – equity, voice, community, sustainability, aims, curriculum, pedagogy, assessment – and continue CPR’s mission of achieving the highest possible quality of primary education for all our children.

Evidence therefore underpins the Trust’s policy engagement, school leadership and professional development programmes no less than those of its activities bearing the label ‘research’, though it is through the latter that we are building on the vast evidence base that informed CPR’s interim and final reports.

The Trust is currently foregrounding three forms of research activity:

  • Refreshing and extending existing CPR evidence
  • New national research projects
  • School-led and school-focused action research

Within this framework fifteen new research initiatives are now under way. These include a large-scale project supported by the Educational Endowment Foundation, twelve priority-driven research reviews, a research schools network in one of our regions which we hope will provide a model for elsewhere, and an archiving project. Each has its own page.
