Schools + suppliers

Finding evidence in educational technology can be challenging. We employ four models to gather evidence that guides our decisions regarding EdTech.

Four models

Co-design

EdTech suppliers, researchers, teachers and students work together to identify educational needs and opportunities, and to develop a combination of technology and pedagogy to address these.

Test and Learn

EdTech suppliers work with schools to rapidly test their product in a school setting so they can improve it.

Evidence Hub

A place for schools and policymakers to work with EdTech developers and researchers to generate evidence about impact, synthesize it, and disseminate evidence-based advice to guide adoption and scaling.

EdTech Network

A network of schools, researchers, and suppliers that share their experience and insights. As well as networking, this may involve training and professional development.

The next forum

The National EdTech Testbed Forum is an annual event. Contact us to hear first about the next forum, or to take part as a school, researcher or EdTech supplier.
