Evidence Based Education

Evidence Based Education (EBE) exists to help great teachers become even greater, and to drive sustained and sustainable school improvement. We’re a UK-based organisation supporting educators to make informed, high-impact decisions in their classrooms and across schools.

Our team of experienced teachers and school leaders understands the realities of education, from tight budgets to high workloads. We combine evidence-based insight with practical solutions, ensuring every intervention is both relevant and sustainable.

EBE is best known for the Great Teaching Toolkit: Evidence Review and the Great Teaching Toolkit (GTT), a professional development platform used by over 18,000 teachers globally. We focus on long-term improvement, helping schools embed high-quality teaching practices that consistently enhance student outcomes.

EBE transforms teaching and learning across school trusts through the Great Teaching Toolkit (GTT). Key benefits include:

Structured CPD Pathways – Personalised development aligned with the Model for Great Teaching, focusing on the areas that make the biggest impact.

60 Supercharged Teaching Techniques – Clear guidance on why, how, and when to use each technique, with practical classroom suggestions and support to adapt them to your context.

12 Professional Development Courses – Build teacher and leadership expertise across your school or trust.

360° Feedback Tools – Student surveys, self-reflection surveys, and peer feedback, all linked to the Model for Great Teaching. Feedback flows directly into recommended techniques and focused goals. Triangulate data to identify gaps, agreements, and next steps.

Step-by-Step Implementation Guides – Practical guides for applying techniques and developing adaptive expertise.

Sustained Support – A dedicated adviser works with schools to embed change, organise professional learning communities, and support coaching conversations.

Extensive Resources – Access over 600 evidence-informed tools, videos, and strategies for immediate classroom impact.
