In this What Works Network Strategic Fund project, we aimed to develop and pilot an approach to mobilising research evidence that was informed by the behavioural needs of users. It was based on the premise that by understanding the current state of practice, in addition to the current state of the evidence base, What Works centres could better address the gaps between the two. It focused on mobilising a joint piece of evidence-based guidance from the Early Intervention Foundation (EIF) and the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) on social and emotional learning (SEL).
