2) The embedded research model
Here the responsibility for ensuring research informs practice lies with policy makers and service delivery managers (eg Local Authorities and Headteachers).
- It sees organisations embedding research in the systems and processes of teaching and learning, such as standards, policies and procedures and tools.
- Managers use performance management and inspection and appraisal regimes to encourage the use of research in practice.

3) The organisational excellence model
This model relies on delivery organisations developing a research-minded culture. They
- Create partnerships with local universities and other research organisations
- Adapt research findings to local settings
- Encourage ongoing learning within their organisation.

There is not a preferred model from the three above, indeed what happens in reality is often a blend of all three with different amounts of each model depending on the context…what blend do you have?
