However, a combination of small effect sizes, wide confidence intervals, and treatment effect heterogeneity means that researchers...

Several influential reviews and one meta-review have converged on the position that teacher professional development (PD) is more effective when it is: sustained, collaborative, subject-specific, draws on external expertise, has buy-in from teachers and is practice-based.
