We’re seeking high-quality, relevant research that may inform amendments to the ECF and CCF.
The CCF and ECF were based on the most up-to-date research into excellent teaching practice when published in 2019. The Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) independently reviewed the frameworks to ensure they draw on the best available evidence, interpreted with fidelity. However, evidence does not stand still, and DfE is committed to updating the frameworks as research progresses.
We are therefore seeking research that may inform amendments to the frameworks. It is not anticipated that this will involve a fundamental rewrite of the frameworks. The aim is to build on what is there to ensure the frameworks are up-to-date and fit-for-purpose.
Evidence submitted will be considered by DfE and EEF on the basis of whether it is robust, relevant and helpfully supplements the existing evidence cited in the framework. Decisions about amendments to the frameworks will be taken by the DfE, working with panels of experts.The final frameworks will be independently reviewed and quality assured by the EEF to ensure they draw on the best available evidence and that this evidence has been interpreted with fidelity. It is not anticipated that this will involve a fundamental rewrite of the frameworks. The aim is to build on what is there to ensure the frameworks are up to date and fit for purpose.
