Research for Equitable
Access and Learning Centre

Education is at the heart of social transformation. It is a fundamental human right and has the potential to reduce poverty, empower women, improve health and drive economic growth. But, in some of the poorest parts of the world many children and young people are deprived of access to good quality education and denied the chance to learn and full their potential.

PEDAL is a new research centre within the PELS Research Group in the Faculty of Education, established as of mid-October 2015, and funded by the LEGO Foundation. The guiding focus of the centre's work is to develop world class research concerned with the role of play and playfulness in young children's learning and development.

Research in children’s literature and culture at Cambridge is multifaceted and touches upon every aspect of children’s and young people’s lives.

The Rudd Centre is a research-intensive initiative that engages state-of-the-art scientific and practice-based advances to influence children’s development, mental health and life chances.

KCESP works to connect ordinary people with extraordinary science. To open up a space for conversation on the developments that are shaping a future we all share.

The Faculty of Education Research Groups undertake world class research for education. They produce rigorous, original and significant contributions to knowledge and support informed development of public policy and professional practice.
