The EEF toolkit
The Sutton Trust-Education Endowment Foundation is independent grant-making charity with an aim of closing the gap between educational achievement and family income.
The EEF Teaching and Learning Toolkit provides a summary of topics in terms of their impact on learner attainment, their cost and the strength of their evidence. Impact is measured in terms of additional months progress you might expect learners to make because of an approach being used. The toolkit also provides a DIY evaluation guide for measuring research impact.
