Central to these principles is the recognition that all children share core cognitive similarities, which means evidence-based methods like clear instruction and retrieval practice benefit every pupil, and the project encourages schools to adopt a system-wide approach, prioritizing high-quality, inclusive teaching practices rather than isolated interventions.
