Member testimonials

 

“Our EPI membership is one of the pillars of our work within UK education. Our aim as a commercial part of the UK educational landscape is to add value through more than our products and services, and for that we need the widest-possible appreciation of the issues driving UK education. Our EPI membership provides that.”

Paul Cherry, Director, Policy, Partnerships and UK Sales at Hodder Education

“We’ve been delighted to be an Organisation Member of EPI over the course of several years. It is a highly professional organisation which provides objective and reliable analysis of the education system with a particular focus on the stark reality of the disadvantage gap. This work reflects our own values in striving for greater equality and social justice for all children and young people.” 

Geoff Barton, General Secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders

Commission us

The Education Policy Institute supports a variety of organisations by carrying out commissioned work that investigates key issues in education through rigorous and evidence based research. All our work is done with the aim of supporting high standards in education, especially for the disadvantaged. We can look at particular policy issues, assess differing policy options, and help to evaluate interventions. If you are interested in commissioning us or exploring how we can support your work, please contact us on info@epi.org.uk or 020 7340 1160

Co-host events

We host a number of conferences, roundtables, and networking events. These are often done in partnership with organisations in order to bring together decision makers, experts and parliamentarians to discuss a topical or important issue. Please get in touch if you are interested in co-hosting an event, including during the party conference season. To discuss further please contact us on info@epi.org.uk or 020 7340 1160
