SIoE Research and Knowledge Exchange Centre is the home for all funded RKE in the Institute. Previously known as the Centre for Development and Research in Education, we have been developing and delivering educational innovations and evaluations locally, nationally and internationally for over 25 years.  

SIoE Research and Knowledge Exchange brings together experts in research, knowledge exchange and professional development. We are statisticians, social researchers, curriculum designers, teacher trainers and so much more.

Our team is academically-focused with a strong evidential base, client-orientated with a deep understanding of reality outside academia, cooperative and collaborative so that we can respond flexibly and creatively to client needs, and efficient and cost-effective with a commitment to delivery of the highest quality outputs.
