New report from The University of Manchester highlights key challenges facing today’s primary and secondary schools.
From early years literacy to curriculum reforms, education is a pressing topic for policymakers in the aftermath of the COVID pandemic.
Now a new report produced by Policy@Manchester, The University of Manchester’s policy engagement unit, has highlighted some of the key issues facing educators, primary and secondary school leaders, children and young people.
The report, School Matters, compiled by eight academics from the Manchester Institute of Education at The University of Manchester, puts five areas under the spotlight, including education partnerships and emotional wellbeing, and provides a series of research-led recommendations and interventions.
It emphasises throughout that engaging with children and valuing their enjoyment of the subjects they learn at school are the best ways to raise attainment and alleviate challenges.
