Our skills in evaluation

Evaluation - the 5th "E" - has become an essential part of every new initiative. We can advise on suitable techniques from the selection of appropriate test instruments through to the use of complex statistical analyses.

We can undertake -

• postal surveys
• telephone surveys
• focus group discussions and
• face-to-face interviews
• observation studies

We can survey -

• pupils (from key stage 1 to 4)
• parents
• schools
• parents
• the general public

We can measure -

• knowledge
• attitudes
• self-reported behaviour
• actual behaviour

Careful attention to detail at all stages means that we can often exceed expected response rates for surveys.
