Equalising Educational Opportunities
SES and achievement• Robert Putnam: ‘the most important divide in America today is
class, not race, and the place where it matters most is in the home’.
• UK: social class remains the strongest predictor of educational achievement
• OECD data: students from low SES backgrounds are twice as likely to be low performers

Wraparound Intervention
A system-level intervention that quite literally aims to ‘wrap’ existing services around children and young people and their families to address their problems in an ecologically comprehensive and coordinated way.

Essential conditions:• Effective assessment • Evidence-based teaching strategies• Structured, systematic problem-solving approach• Based on student need, not labels• Requires training of professionals• Students with complex needs can be triaged directly
into tier 3 or 4

Changing schools and systemsSuccess for All
The EvidenceQuint et al. (2014). MDRC By the end of the second year, 16 of the 19 schools were judged to meet the Success for All standards for adequate implementation fidelity.
SFA reading classes had greater use of cooperative learning, and close adherence to the curriculum. First-graders who had been enrolled in SFA schools since kindergarten significantly outperformed their counterparts who had been continuously enrolled in control group schools on two measures of phonetic and decoding skills, although not on measures of fluency and comprehension.
