Action Research Projects

AISWA promotes sectorial engagement in action research projects through partnerships with organisations and local universities that aim to improve educational practice, student engagement and school leadership. Action research projects provide professional learning opportunities for educators to engage with evidence-based research to improve teaching and promote collaborative change.

AISWA is committed to sharing evidence from action research findings to help to inform practice within the Independent School sector.
