T-REX Digital Badge: Using Evidence to Address Educational Disadvantage

The overarching aim of this Digital Badge (developed in partnership with Stranmillis University College, Belfast) is to support educators to enable them to best meet the needs of those pupils furthest from educational opportunity. We aim to do this by building understanding (on the issues of educational disadvantage) and research skills (to facilitate evidence informed decision making and practices).
