The climate crisis is arguably top of the agenda globally, but its impacts on education and the work we need to put into resolving such impacts remains understated. In this episode of Brighter Futures, we’re bringing those issues and necessary resolutions to the forefront. Join a fantastic panel of Kulima’s Dr Katharine Vincent, and EDT’s Donvan Amenya and Rachael Fitzpatrick, as we highlight the interconnected nature of these challenges, and how best to approach these vital solutions.

EDT welcomes the recent announcement by the UK government on the development of Skills England. We welcome the opportunity to play a fundamental role in the development of an approach that can transform the landscape of skills development in England. We are ready to contribute our research, labour market information, programme delivery, and employer engagement resources and expertise to support this important initiative and help build a more skilled and adaptable workforce for the future.

The transitions from school to higher education and employment can have a significant impact on an individual’s lifetime potential. Earlier in 2023, we conducted a literature review to help us understand the challenges that girls in low-resource settings face when making their transitions. In this article we reflect on the findings of the report, the promising interventions it highlights, and some key lessons for policymakers.

A child’s early years are arguably the most important in their development, so the quality of early years education should be paramount. Whether we have consensus on what is needed for this vital age group, the priority areas of improvement, and how we address inequity of early learning experiences are all conversations at the heart of episode 9 of Brighter Futures.

We are delighted to announce that EDT is contributing to FCDO’s Scaling Access and Learning in Education (SCALE) programme, which aims to improve foundational learning outcomes around the world.

Education technology (edtech) is a huge and multifaceted area, and it has the potential to contribute to every aspect of school life and approach to education reform. Edtech can support learning and behaviour change, enable greater engagement across the education sector, and provide opportunities for better inclusion of marginalised and hard-to-reach communities.

The transition from primary to secondary school, and from school to higher education or work, can have a significant impact on an individual’s academic success, employability, wellbeing and lifetime potential. Evidence shows that transition periods present windows of opportunity to intervene and support vulnerable girls in low-resource settings – however, less is understood about what works.

EDT was proud to sponsor the annual Education World Forum from Sunday 19th to Wednesday 22nd May, at the Queen Elizabeth II Centre in Westminster, London.
