Abstract
Book synopsis: Since 1997 the Effective Pre-school, Primary and Secondary Education Project (EPPSE) has investigated academic and social-behavioural development in a national sample of approximately 3,000 children from the age of 3+ years. This phase of the research explored how different stages of education, student characteristics, family background, and home and out of school learning, are related to students’ GCSE attainment and progress, their social behaviour, dispositions, views of school, and future destinations at age 16. The research also estimates some of the economic returns from society’s investment in early education. This Research Brief outlines the main findings from a longer report by Sylva et al., 2014, which, in turn, summarises six technical papers – see Sammons et al., 2014a; 2014b, 2014c 2014d, Siraj et al., 2014, Taggart et al., 2014 and Catton, Crawford and Dearden 2014.
