世界各地的政府、地方当局、学校领导和教师都希望提高所有学生的受教育程度和参与程度，并尽量减少社会和经济群体在结果上的任何系统性差异。一个特别值得关注的是那些来自可能在学校内外客观上对他们不利的背景的学生。然而，目前大量的努力和资金被浪费在成功希望渺茫的政策、做法和干预措施上，这可能确实危及正在取得的进展。许多教育研究证据的质量很差，再加上证据使用者不愿意适当区分我们知道和不知道的东西，这意味着机会正在被错过。在公共开支减少的时候，重要的是，拟议的干预措施既要有成效，又要有效率。
克服教育中的缺点是独一无二的，因为它：
显示了成绩不佳和贫困的解决方案在哪里
结合主要（新），次要（官方）和已发表（审查）证据
区分那些可能导致成绩不佳的原因，这些原因对个人来说基本上是固定的，而那些原因是可以改变的。
在处理成绩不佳和增加教育方面的社会公正方面，有循证的前进道路。这本书展示了哪些方法更有可能，以及进一步的工作可以产生更多的好处。
这本书将是一个关键的文本，为学生，发展学术研究人员和监督员在社会科学，并为那些研究用户负责改善教育成果。
Governments, local authorities, school leaders, and teachers all over the world want to improve the educational attainment and participation of all students, and to minimise any systematic differences in outcomes for social and economic groups. A particular concern is for those students from backgrounds that may objectively disadvantage them at school and beyond. However, considerable effort and money is currently being wasted on policies, practices and interventions that have very little hope of success, and that may indeed endanger the progress that is being made otherwise. The poor quality of much education research evidence, coupled with an unwillingness among users of evidence to discriminate appropriately between what we know and do not know, means that opportunities are being missed. At a time of reduced public spending it is important that proposed interventions are both effective and efficient.
Overcoming Disadvantage in Education is unique in the way that it:
Shows where the solutions to underachievement and poverty lie
combines primary(new), secondary (official) and published (review) evidence
distinguishes between those possible causes of underachievement that are largely fixed for individuals, and those that are modifiable.
There are evidence-informed ways forward in handling under-achievement and increasing social justice in education. This book shows which the more likely approaches are, and where further work could yield further benefits.
This book will be a key text for students, developing academic researchers and supervisors in the social sciences, and for those research users charged with improving educational outcomes.
