This Early Childhood Learning Trajectory video outlines children’s progress in executive functions. It can be used alongside the EYLF 2.0 assessment and planning cycle to support children’s learning, development and wellbeing.

In this case study, an early childhood education and care (ECEC) centre director and a teacher describe their use of evidence to improve outcomes for children.

This Early Childhood Learning Trajectory looks at children’s progress in executive functions to help you plan the next steps in their learning and development.

Submission on initiatives for supporting recruitment and retention of teachers

See how Amber Turner, a French teacher at Alfred Deakin High School, uses spacing and retrieval practice in her classes.

This practice resource outlines some strategies to embed the development of executive function and self-regulation in your early childhood education and care setting.

ECEC services often have cultures of sharing and discussing evidence, but less support is available for early childhood educators to actively change their practice based on evidence.  

Our national survey has found that Australian schools often have cultures of sharing and discussing evidence, but less support is available for teachers to actively change their practice based on evidence.

Spacing and retrieval involves separating learning over multiple lessons and providing opportunities for students to recall what they have learned. This helps to commit learning to long-term memory.

This checklist is a list of practical steps teachers can take to support the adoption of the evidence-based practice spacing and retrieval in their setting.

Examples of practice demonstrate effective practice in different education settings. You can use them to think about how to apply the practice in your own context.
