Encouraging vocational students to improve their literacy through a tailored Drop Everything and Read (DEAR) programme.

This project evaluates the use of simulations to support learners in developing digital skills in practical contexts previously excluded in prisons, for example, performing online transactions, accessing social media. It also considers how prisoners with digital design skills can be involved as ‘learner-designers’ in the production of simulation prototypes.

This project focused on how to promote a culture of inclusivity by supporting practitioners in learning more about neurodiversity with a view to generating a resource that would enhance learners’ reading skills.

This study explored the potential tension that exists between current funding and quality systems and realistic progression rates in ESOL.
