We know that effective teaching starts with excellent teachers. We have been working with teachers around the world for over 50 years. Our experts are key to developing high-impact teaching methods and effective teacher professional development to improve both learning outcomes and teacher retention.

We have been working on at-scale education reform for nearly 40 years, both as researchers investigating powerful international case studies of successful school reform, and as practitioners working in partnership with Ministries of Education to deliver school improvement at scale in jurisdictions from Brunei Darussalam to England, Dubai, and Rwanda.

We know that effective use of edtech can enable and enhance the work that we do. We adopt an ‘education-led, tech-enabled' approach, which ensure that the way we use technology in the design and delivery of our programmes enhances – rather than diminishes – impact and value for money.

We have a dedicated research team with a 20-year track record of producing high-quality, rapid, and practitioner-focussed research. We draw on this research expertise to provide evidence for what works in education reform and maximise the efficacy of our projects around the world.

Investing in leadership is one of the most efficient and effective ways of strengthening education systems and improving teaching and learning at scale, and is second only to the quality of teaching in terms of impact on learning outcomes. We support school and system leaders to become agents of change beyond their own school or district, driving efficient and effective school reform.

Education Development Trust is authorised by the Department for Education in England to inspect British schools overseas - international schools that offer a UK curriculum.

All children should be given the chance to learn. Our experienced programme teams design reforms to reach the most marginalised learners, including those with special educational needs or disabilities, and train education professionals in inclusive pedagogies to ensure that all children are given the opportunity to access education.

Barriers to girls’ learning can be complex: our evidence-based approaches ensure the best results for the girls we work with and for. Our passion for girls’ education is matched by our experience and expertise, with a deep evidence base and extensive delivery of programmes that benefit girls across the world.

We use our expertise in employability and careers services to bridge the gap between education, training and employment, working with national and local funders to deliver high-quality support to adults and young people.

We have more than 20 years’ experience of working in fragile and conflict-affected states and supporting education in emergencies. We provide rapid-response support and advice in emergencies, as well as both immediate and long-term technical assistance for post-crisis capacity building and reform.

We work with governments to offer transformational training and improvement programmes to build the capacity of English-language teachers. Our 50 years of experience in the development of the English language teaching profession makes us an authority on best practice in this area.
