Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021

Our research is focused on understanding and developing solutions for some of education's most complex challenges.

We are pleased that our commitment to making a difference is recognised in REF 2021.

When it comes to our publications, the world is reading what we are writing. The vast majority of our outputs are assessed as internationally excellent, with over half given the highest possible score of 4*.

All of our submitted impact case studies have made a very considerable impact on society.
