NELI Preschool Effectiveness Trial - Expression of Interest
NELI Preschool is a 20-week oral language enrichment programme, centred around shared storybook reading, which is designed to improve the oral language skills of children in nursery settings. Previous research has shown positive findings for children who took part in NELI Preschool. To build on this previous evidence, the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) is funding an evaluation of NELI Preschool. The programme will be delivered by OxEd and Assessment (OxEd) and will be independently evaluated by the National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER). This evaluation will run in the academic year 2024-25 and will involve 3 to 4-year-old children from a pre-school class/classroom in 318 maintained and PVI nursery settings.
Once you submit this form, the OxEd team will be in touch as soon as possible to discuss your eligibility and next steps. Please note that you will be under no obligation to sign up for the trial at this stage.
