Accessing and using the best available evidence-based resources can sometimes be difficult. Many governors and trustees are short on time and do not have a background in teaching. It can also be hard to know where to find jargon-free and trustworthy information.
This is where the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) can help. Our EEF guide to becoming an evidence-informed school governor and trustee is designed to offer you a quick way into the evidence we make freely available to all schools. We hope it will help promote better-informed discussion in governing boards about how your school can improve.
