Do you have a great idea?

It is often said that government policy follows teachers’ good ideas. 

Now more than ever, schools should be developing new ideas, implementing successful changes and inventing tomorrow’s learning.

In our current times of government-directed curriculum, Ofsted-inspected schools, and “rigorous” accountability, the 21st Century Learning Alliance sets out to encourage and enable action-based research in schools. 

In 2009, the 21st Century Learning Alliance started to listen to all the great ideas that teachers were coming up with and in that year launched its Fellowship programme. 

Now in the third season of awarding Fellowships, the Alliance continues with its stated straight-forward aims of giving support and encouragement to teachers and school leaders to enable them to achieve self-directed research and learning programmes.
