    International Academy of Education
    The International Academy of Education is a a not-for-profit
    scientific association that promotes educational research
    its dissemination, and the implementation of its
    implications.

Founded in 1986, the Academy is dedicated to strengthening the contributions of research, solving critical educational problems throughout the world, and providing better communication among policy makers, research and practitioners.

The general aim of the Academy is to foster scholarly excellence in all fields of education. Towards this end the Academy provides timely syntheses of research-based evidence of international importance. The Academy also provides critiques of research, its evidentiary basis, and its application to policy.

A primary project of the IAE has been the production of a series of summaries of syntheses of research that has implications for policy and practice in education.

Reading Together

This study was commissioned by the Iterative BES Programme to inform the Educational Leadership (Schooling) BES. The study demonstrates that a scaling up tool used by school leadership staff working in partnership with parents can make a significant impact on reading achievement not only for the children being worked with but also their siblings from 6 – 13 year olds in a Decile 1 90% Pasifika School.
