Our Work

Policy Work

We help decision makers think clearly about the effects of different learning strategies on children and young people — and we campaign alongside our supporters to put the science of learning firmly on the agenda.

Two strands of our work

Policy engagement and campaigning

Evidence changes outcomes only when it reaches the people making decisions. This is how we make sure it does.

Policy Engagement

We help decision makers think carefully about the effects of different learning strategies on children and young people, bringing an evidence-informed perspective into policy discussions at every level — from individual schools to national government.

Campaigning

We join forces with our supporters to drive change — using our collective voice to advocate for approaches to learning that are grounded in evidence, and for the interests of the children and young people they affect.

Taking the science of learning and memory into the heart of government.
Our work in action

From the classroom to Downing Street

Two moments that reflect what this strand of our work is ultimately about — reaching the people who can change things for children and young people.

01

10 Downing Street

Our policy work has taken us to 10 Downing Street, where we held a discussion with the Prime Minister about learning and memory techniques.

02

Points of Light Award

One of our trustees was awarded the Prime Minister’s Points of Light Award for his work introducing our National Schools Programme into schools, and for the positive effects and impact it has had on children and young people — especially during the Covid-19 pandemic.
