* The majority of Australian teachers (85%) use evidence to inform their teaching. This is a positive finding, as it suggests that teachers are committed to using the best available research to improve their practice.

* However, there are some key gaps in the way that teachers use evidence. For example, only 63% of teachers said that they always use evidence to select teaching resources, and only 58% said that they always use evidence to evaluate the effectiveness of their teaching.

* Additionally, there are some areas where teachers could benefit from more support in using evidence. For example, 28% of teachers said that they would like more training on how to find and interpret evidence, and 26% said that they would like more help with accessing evidence-based resources.

Recommendations:

Based on these findings, we recommend that the following steps be taken to improve the way that Australian teachers use evidence to inform their teaching:

* Provide more training for teachers on how to find and interpret evidence. This training could be offered through a variety of channels, such as online courses, workshops, and conferences.

* Develop more resources to support teachers in using evidence-based practices. These resources could include toolkits, guides, and case studies.

* Create a culture where evidence-based practice is valued and rewarded. This could be done by recognizing and celebrating teachers who use evidence to inform their teaching, and by providing incentives for teachers to engage in professional development opportunities related to evidence-based practice.

By taking these steps, we can help to ensure that Australian teachers have the knowledge and skills they need to use evidence to inform their teaching, and that all students have the opportunity to benefit from evidence-based education.
