We then discuss the importance of three key aspects of our study: collaborative research, linking teacher wellbeing and the sustainability of the profession to teachers' agency, and teachers' systematic research on their own practice. The authors revisit the main goals of the project in relation to new literacy demands, outlining why this kind of collaborative research into changing pedagogies and curriculum matters, especially in current social conditions, and how the inquiries of the teacher researchers summarised in this book illustrate the value of such collaboration. We have taken teachers' wellbeing to be an integral element of this research.
