President Trump is pulling the plug on a research arm within the Department of Education, leaving educators and policymakers in the dark. The Institute of Education Sciences (IES), which has long provided data on student achievement and best teaching practices, is seeing its contracts canceled, according to employees who spoke with NPR. The move, directed by a White House efficiency unit, has left staff shaken and raises pressing questions about the future of education research.
