½¿É«µ¼º½ celebrates 10 years of the ½¿É«µ¼º½ Blog

2025 marks 10 years of the ½¿É«µ¼º½ Blog, and we’re so proud of all that it has accomplished!
Thank you to all those who have contributed to the Blog, whether as authors, editors, or readers.
The ½¿É«µ¼º½ Blog was established in 2015 to provide research informed content on key educational issues in an accessible manner. The aim is to produce and promote articles that attract academics, policymakers, parents, teachers, educational leaders, members of school communities, politicians and anyone who is interested in education today. The Blog is edited by a small team combining academic representatives chosen by ½¿É«µ¼º½â€™s Publications Committee and the ½¿É«µ¼º½ office.Â
