So interesting to hear how Sweden is trying to enhance partnerships that focus on practice-based research in schools. Looking forward to more collaboration and the opportunity for comparative study 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇸🇪
#CenTCS Joint Director, @profaileenk.bsky.social, enjoyed a warm Swedish welcome when she presented at the Swedish Educational Research Association conference this week. The conference theme was 'Collaboration, Partnership, and Practice-Based Research in Education' - much to learn from each other!
