Implementation in Small Schools

Small schools, with their unique characteristics and close-knit communities, offer a distinct educational experience. However, implementing new educational strategies in such settings can be challenging due to their size and resource constraints. Here are some key considerations for small schools when implementing new strategies based on the research evidence.

Implementation outcomes are the building blocks of any successful change process in an educational setting. They provide a roadmap for school leaders, helping them understand where they are, where they want to go, and how to get there.

Leveraging Implementation Outcomes

Implementation outcomes, as described in the Education Endowment Foundation's (EEF) guidance report on implementation, serve as a compass, guiding school leaders through the intricacies of the implementation process.
