This opportunity aims to fund research projects that will collectively build new interdisciplinary research capacity in education, around two interrelated priority themes:

• teaching and learning, focusing on the role of teachers, their training, supply and retention
• the uses of technology in teaching and learning.

Your project must:

• address one or both of these priority themes in the context of compulsory education, within one or more of the UK’s four nations and jurisdictions
