What we do
NFER works with a range of organisations, from national government to local authorities,charities and private sector companies. Our research areas include Assessment, Statistical analysis, International comparisons, Information and reviews, Evaluations and Consultancy work. We also run data collection, test trialling and survey administration services, and a range of omnibus and panel surveys.
In addition to contract research, evaluation and assessment work, we:
-
identify and tackle the important research questions of the future, funding this work ourselves or seeking specially targeted funds.
-
develop new products and services to make it easy for others to gather and use evidence to help them improve education, children’s services and classroom learning
-
work closely with clients and partners to ensure maximum impact of our wide range of projects.
Whether we are providing research evidence for policymakers or to improve practice in the classroom, we are passionate about making sure that learners are the ultimate beneficiaries of all we do.
