CES briefings



Since 1995 our key research findings have been summarised in a regular series of CES Briefings, which are now well established sources of information for other academics, educators, policy-makers, advisers and interested members of the general public. Many of these briefings have been requested thousands of times - over 50,000 in the case of the most requested, and over 1/4 of a million in total over five years.
