We have also created a strategy to embed research into everything we do, but not just any research – we want to develop research that improves the life chances of all children and young people, creating real impact in regional communities, national and international contexts. We are also committed to embedding our approaches to social justice into our extensive partnership, funding collaborative practitioner research in schools, evaluating private sector corporate and social responsibility projects, and supporting social enterprises to build capacity. Amongst all staff, there is a strong commitment to social justice and having an anti-racist approach to ITE, and this informs all we do at the Carnegie School of Education.
