A research-led early elementary language program that is proven to improve educational outcomes.

Turning research evidence into practical tools through world-class assessments, targeted intervention and whole class enrichment to improve educational outcomes for children worldwide and ensure no child is left behind.

Based on extensive University of Oxford research into children’s educational development.

National roll-out of Nuffield Early Language Intervention (NELI) in the UK boosted young children’s language skills by four months

 

A new independent evaluation of NELI found that children who took part in the program made on average four months’ additional progress in their language skills. It also found that children from less advantaged backgrounds made on average seven months’ additional progress as a result of receiving the program, suggesting that NELI could help to close the language development gap between these children and their peers.
