New Essential Education Discoveries Act of 2023

This bill creates a National Center for Advanced Development in Education within the Institute of Education Sciences to identify and promote advances in teaching and learning across all education levels. The Center will collect and analyze education data, fund research through grants, and disseminate evidence-based practices to educators and parents, with specific focus on addressing educational disparities and supporting student development through the "science of learning and development." It authorizes $500 million annually for fiscal years 2024-2028 to support these activities, including improving statewide data systems that track student progress from early childhood through workforce. The Center will work with schools, educators, and communities to develop solutions for improving education outcomes, particularly for underserved students. This legislation directly affects educators, school administrators, and students by creating a new federal entity focused on evidence-based education research and implementation.
