In this episode of The Science of Learning, we’re joined by Paul Givan, Northern Ireland’s Education Minister, to explore the books and reports that have shaped his thinking and influenced education policy across the department. As Minister of Education since 2024, Givan has overseen major reform discussions around assessment, school improvement and system-wide change.


We discuss the evidence, ideas and research that have informed key policy decisions, how educational reports make their way from theory into practice, and what policymakers look for when deciding which recommendations to act upon.
