There are some fantastic reflections at the moment from the Research Schools Network on EEF 'School's Guide to Implementation'. Here is a great blog from John Holmes, Director of Tudor Grange Research School, on how systems and structures support effective implementation...

Here is another great blog from Chris Runeckles, Director of Durrington Research School, on why uniting people is central to effective implementation..

Reposting this blog again as it's great! I had an operation recently and kept seeing examples of systems and structures that had been created to 'unite' people - checklists, reminders, summaries of core components etc. You need to actively operationalise the right interactions.

NEW: EEF have published a podcast on the new 'School's Guide to Implementation'. I discuss some of the key themes in the guidance, and Laura Spence and Phil Stock provide some fantastic reflections on the implications for practice.
