Stuart oversees the design and delivery of EBE’s learning and development programmes for teachers and leaders. His work is concerned with helping educators understand and make appropriate use of the best available research evidence to promote learner outcomes.
He is a qualified teacher of English, and worked as a classroom teacher, middle leader and senior leader in secondary schools between 2001 and 2011. In 2014, he took on the role of Policy Fellow in the UK Government’s Department for Education.
Stuart is currently a Visiting International Professor in the Hector Research Institute for Education Sciences and Psychology at the Eberhard Karls University, Tübingen.
The Great Teaching Toolkit (GTT) was launched in September 2021. It brings together an evidence-based model for effective teaching, diagnostic feedback to teachers about the quality of their teaching, and courses to help teachers get better at the things that seem to matter to learning. In this session, Stuart – one of the designers of the GTT – will present insights from a multi-phase development process, and early use of the GTT in schools around the world.
