Research interests

Louise’s research interests lie in Assessment and in Transformational Change. She is a member of the internationally renowned Assessment Reform Group and has worked on assessment nationally and internationally with a focus on social justice. Louise has a particular interest in the inter-relationship of research, policy and practice in improving education.  Specifically, how the evidence base from which decisions in education are taken might be enhanced by teachers, learners, researchers and policy makers working collaboratively.
