The National Education Research Panel (NERP), managed by C3 Education, provides the educational community with the data and insight it requires to develop resource use in schools and colleges. Accurate, timely information and analysis allows schools, and providers of products and services, to best meet the challenges of resourcing education.

Latest research headlines

The impact of funding changes is beginning to have a significant impact on schools. We will be updating schools and providers with our new quarterly market 'barometer'. We are also asking questions as to what resources and activities will be impacted once the Spending Review revisions reach school budgets.
