So what? 1.Starting salary matters for recruitment. This complements evidence on importance of pay for retention. 2. Recruitment campaigns should emphasise extrinsic rewards, alongside meaningful aspects. Great 2015 example here - watch to the end! youtube.com/watch?v=vTzzZa…

@SteveTeachPhys @MrElliotHahn Hi Steven. Yes, I agree that the lack of precision for many of these evaluations jumps out of this graph. But I also thinks it provides useful evidence about a few TA-led interventions that are more likely to benefit pupils.

Once again, the evidence is clear: TAs can transform student outcomes but only if training is the top priority. Training isn’t optional. Interventions succeed only when TAs are carefully developed to deliver them well and effectively..

📣 New research! Teaching assistants play an important role in supporting pupils’ learning. But how can schools use them to make the biggest difference? Our research explores which evidence-based interventions led by teaching assistants have the strongest impact. Link below 👇

Hi X 👋🏻 Is there anyone out there who a) knows how to write basic C++ scripts and b) interested in joining a research project looking at behaviour/attention in the classroom? ~2 of work in total. You would be a coauthor on paper. Please do get in touch!

Primary educators 👋🏻 I am interviewing teachers for a research project aimed at understanding how teachers learn from each other in the workplace. But my sample is currently very secondary heavy… Could you (please!) spare me an hour of your time this week or next? Thanks!

My friend Natasha Raheem @Dixons_OS is writing an important book about schools that support student and teacher belonging. She is looking for case studies of schools doing great work in this area. If you know of good examples, please DM me. Thanks!

Just looked into some @Carousel_Learn data for the combined and separate science chemistry bank (higher) and there have been over 1,250,000 questions answered since the summer 🤯🤯🤯 (remember this is only two banks out of the twelve we released!!)
