CREC firmly believes in the importance of practitioner research as a way of generating new knowledge and providing an alternative narrative to more objective, distanced methods of research.

Through our various MA modules, PhD's, and the work and support of the Learning Circle, CREC has amassed a large archive of practitioner research.

CREC has identified those which it feels have a particular value (normally commended by the academic markers) and, with the agreement of the authors, have made them openly available for other early years practitioners and researchers to access, and hopefully use, to inform their own practice and academic study.

Our aim is to add to this archive over time as other high-quality practitioner research is completed by our students.
