Welcome to TLA research, where we provide high quality summaries of research findings and more detailed anthologies. Whether you want to find out more about something of interest or you are planning your own research or enquiry, this section provides reliable evidence on a wide variety of topics.
There are more than 50 summaries, each appraised, selected and produced for the GTC's Research for Teachers series by the Centre for the Use of Research and Evidence in Education (CUREE).
Each study helps to:
- illuminate the complex tasks involved in teaching
- enable teachers to identify clear links with their own pupils and practice
- provide detailed information about particular teaching and learning approaches in classrooms.
