Details
This report presents findings from a rapid literature review.
It supports the second cohort of the Education and Outcomes Panel Study (EOPS) research programme. The study is called ‘EOPS-B’ or ‘Five to Twelve’.
The review identifies:
- factors that affect primary school pupils’ attainment and outcomes, including risk factors and protective factors
- gaps in the existing evidence
The Department for Education (DfE) commissioned the report to guide data collection for EOPS-B.
The report will help to provide new longitudinal evidence on factors influencing attainment and wider outcomes in primary school.
