Smith, Sarah C.; Higbee, Thomas S. – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2021

Bagnall, Charlotte Louise – Pastoral Care in Education, 2020
Transitions are an unavoidable part of life, often conceptualised as 'make it or break it periods'. They are important for personal growth and learning but can also be damaging in terms of our psychological wellbeing. Primary-secondary school transition is no exception and can heavily draw on children's ability to cope. However, support for…

There is a growing belief that access to academic opportunities during the summer can help close the achievement gap between low-income students and their higher-income peers. But while significant research is emerging on summer programs for school-age children, information on the preschool period is limited. The Expanding Children's Early…

This review synthesizes research on English reading outcomes of all types of programs for Spanish-dominant ELLs in elementary school.
