The evidence-based practices presented in this guide can be used to support children with disability or developmental delay as they transition to their first year of school. It's designed to help services and schools work together to achieve more successful transitions.

AERO's submission included an overview of how student wellbeing is measured in Australia and highlighted opportunities to improve data collection and use of data in decision-making.

This national research snapshot collects evidence on evidence use in Australian early childhood education and care (ECEC) services.

This methodology outlines the processes AERO used to collect and analyse data for national research snapshots on evidence use and use of evidence-based practices in early childhood education and care.

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 research collects information from educators, teachers and leaders working in ECEC about the place research and evidence has in their professional practice.

This Early Childhood Learning Trajectory looks at children’s progress in mathematical thinking to help teachers and educators plan the next steps in their learning and development.

The Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) conducted an online survey and a series of interviews as part of a project commissioned by the AERO. The survey and interviews were focused on students in Years 7 to 9 who lack the foundational literacy and numeracy skills that are required to engage with a secondary curriculum.

This research summary presents the key findings from 2 reports on better supporting students who enter secondary school with gaps in their foundational literacy and numeracy skills.

The review was administered by the Australian Education Research Organisation (AERO) and conducted by the Centre for International Research on Education Systems (CIRES) at Victoria University. 

By examining literacy and numeracy results across assessments, we can better understand the performance of Australian students over time; we can pinpoint areas of national strength and weakness and improve Australia’s educational outcomes.
