A Creativity Navigator to Guide Teaching for Creativity: Implementation and Teacher Impacts in a Creativity Collaborative of Schools
While creativity has traditionally been linked to arts education, the importance of developing the ability to think creatively across the school curriculum has grown in prominence (James et al. 2019), reflected by its inclusion in OECD PISA 2022 for the first time (OECD, 2024). Creativity enables learners to thrive in a rapidly evolving workplace, with increasing AI integration, and where the ability to solve novel problems with effective solutio…

The impact of support staff on pupils’ ‘positive approaches to learning’ and their academic progress
In recent years there has been an unprecedented increase in support staff in schools in England and Wales. There were widespread expectations that this will be of benefit to teachers and pupils but there has been little systematic research to address the impact of support staff. This study used a naturalistic longitudinal design to investigate the relationship between the amount of support (measured by teacher estimates and systematic observation…
Are class size differences related to pupils' educational progress and classroom processes? findings from the institute of education class size study of children aged 5–7 years
Despite evidence from the USA that children in small classes of less than 20 do better academically there is still a vociferous debate about the effects of class size differences in schools, and considerable gaps in our understanding of the effects of class size differences. This article summarises results from the most complete UK analysis to date of the educational consequences of class size differences. The study had two aims: first, to establ…
Class size, pupil attentiveness and peer relations
Background: Despite a long-running debate over the effects of class size differences on educational performance there is little evidence on the classroom processes that might be involved.Aims: The effects of class size differences are examined in relation to social and behavioural adjustment to school, in terms of two dimensions: attentiveness and peer relations. It was predicted that as class size increased there would be more inattentiveness in…
A Study of Class Size Effects in English School Reception Year Classes
This article reviews the existing evidence on the relationship between class size and achievement for children in their first years of schooling. It then describes a large‐scale longitudinal study of such children within English Local Education Authorities and presents results for achievement progress in literacy and mathematics during the reception year. Using a series of multilevel models, it is shown that there is a relationship with size of c…
Relationships Between Class Size and Teaching: A Multimethod Analysis of English Infant Schools
Research and debate on class size differences has focused on relations with achievement, and there is little relevant research on what mediating classroom processes might be involved. In this article we investigate connections between class size and teaching interactions. We adopt a multimethod approach, integrating qualitative information from teachers’ end-of-year accounts and data from case studies with quantitative information from time-alloc…
Classroom contexts: Connections between class size and within class grouping
Background. There has been a vigorous debate for many years about the educational effects of class size differences, but even if differences have an impact on pupils’ academic progress this still leaves unanswered important questions about what mediates the effect. Aims. This paper is informed by a classroom contextual perspective, and examines associations between class size and within class groupings (in terms of size and number of groups, adul…
The Effects of Class Size on Classroom Processes: ‘It's a Bit Like a Treadmill – Working Hard and Getting Nowhere Fast!’
Despite current moves in the UK to limit class sizes for young children in school, there is still a disturbing lack of research evidence on the effect of class size differences on pupils' educational progress and experience. Past research has concentrated on the effects on outcomes such as pupils' school attainments in basic areas. Much less is known about classroom processes that might mediate any such effects, though such knowledge is more usef…

Note on the use of statistics of total fertility to provide estimates of crude birth rates
It is shown that estimates of the total fertility by age of mother can be used to give good rough approximations to birth rates in under-developed countries and that this method is likely to be more accurate than the collection of historical data relating to particular calendar periods
The East African population census, 1948. Planning and enumeration
In this paper the author describes the methods by which the first East African Population Census was taken in 1948. He begins by discussing the methods previously adopted to obtain population estimates and then outlines the planning of the 1948 census which resulted in an enumeration of 17 million people in less than one week and a detailed sample survey of 10% of the population over three months. Preliminary results of the census are given but f…
