Lost in translation? Can the use of theories of action be effective in helping teachers develop and scale up research-informed practices?
Highlights
• Teachers need to tailor interventions to meet the specifics of their context.

• Theories of action (ToAs) can help teachers localise research based interventions.

• A ToA approach was employed with three primary schools.

• An evaluation of the TOA approach shows it improves teaching practice.

• Using ToAs also results in impactful interventions for students.
