On 27 February 2025, AERO hosted a webinar exploring how teachers and leaders can foster safe and supportive learning environments in their schools.

AERO has released a suite of new resources offering practical, evidence-based strategies to help teachers and school leaders create supportive learning environments.

The Australian Education Research Organisation (AERO) has developed a suite of classroom management resources that are helping schools across the country. Natalie Polak, Assistant Principal Curriculum and Instruction at Dubbo South Public School (NSW), shares her insights on implementing these evidence-based approaches.

AERO has developed a suite of professional learning resources to help school leaders and staff create classroom environments where students feel safe, supported and ready to learn. The practical resources encourage a whole-school approach to classroom management.

In this article, AERO Principal Teaching and Learning Specialist Cate Whiting shares practical guidance and tools to help teachers and school leaders most effectively teach for how students learn, in safe, supportive and well-managed learning environments.

In this article, AERO CEO Dr Jenny Donovan discusses how AERO is supporting teachers and educators to maximise student learning in their classrooms using AERO's evidence-based classroom management resources.

There are many research reports, articles, ideas and resources designed to help teachers and education systems. How, though, can teachers be sure what they choose to do will work? The answer is evidence.

The Australian Education Research Organisation (AERO) is looking for educators, teachers and leaders from Australian schools and early childhood education and care (ECEC) services to prioritise and shape its research and resources.

Schools and services often have cultures of sharing and discussing evidence, but less support exists for practitioners to actively change their practice based on evidence.

Research, and the evidence it provides, helps educators be more intentional in their practice. It also guides important policy decisions to improve children’s outcomes and life trajectories.

Our experiences in the early years shape the developing brain, laying foundations for lifelong learning and resilience.
