Settrington All Saints’ Primary School is the designated Research School for the North Yorkshire coastal area, we are passionate about improving opportunities and educational outcomes for all pupils.
The Research Schools Network has one central aim: to support schools to break the link between family income and education attainment through better use of evidence. The Research Schools in our network do this by working with schools, colleges, and early years settings in their region to improve teaching and learning.
High quality teaching is one of the most powerful levers we have for improving outcomes for all children and young people, but particularly those from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Using research evidence can help to support effective practice. Research Schools help bridge the gap between research and practice.
