The EEF is an independent charity dedicated to breaking the link between family income and educational achievement. In 2011 the Education Endowment Foundation was set up by Sutton Trust as lead charity in partnership with the Impetus Trust. The EEF is funded by a Department for Education grant of £125m and will spend over £200m over its fifteen year lifespan. In 2013, the EEF was named with The Sutton Trust as the government-designated ‘What Works’ centre for improving education outcomes for school-aged children. The Education Endowment Foundation

Our approach Make grants, based on existing evidence Evaluate projects and report findings Synthesise, share and promote the use of evidence
4
EEF projects We are working to fund, develop and evaluate projects that: Build on existing evidence. Will generate significant new understanding of what works. Can be replicated cost effectively if proven to work. Examples: Effective use of teaching assistants, lesson study, texting parents.

Case study: the Pupil Premium Your school receives £100,000 from the Pupil Premium. How should you use this money? Possible options: One to one tuition, reducing class size or peer tutoring? The Toolkit doesn’t tell you what to do, but we hope that it will help them make a more informed decision.

One to one tuition Approach Average impact Cost Evidence estimate Summary One to one +5 months££££ Moderate impact for high cost, based on extensive evidence
13
Reducing class size Approach Average impact Cost Evidence estimate Summary Reducing class size +3 months£££££ Low impact for very high cost, based on moderate evidence
14
Peer tutoring Approach Average impact Cost Evidence estimate Summary Peer tutoring +6 months££ High impact for low cost, based on extensive evidence
15
Three rules of thumb for using evidence 1. Use the evidence as a starting point for discussion 2. Dig deeper into what the evidence actually says 3. Understand the ‘active ingredients’ of implementation
