This is a guide for the types of activities we expect to see referenced in your proposal:

Planning

• In collaboration with the core project team and partners, create a comprehensive evaluation framework for the project in line with The National Lottery Heritage Fund evaluation guidelines, providing quantitative and qualitative evidence to be collected against an agreed range of criteria.
• Communicate with the Design and Client Design Teams, setting up systems to track potential issues and things that go well (e.g. based on risk register)
• Produce an Evaluation Plan for the project that is aligned with The National Lottery Heritage Fund Investment Principles, and the school’s Development and Improvement Plan. This will also be informed by the report from The National Lottery Heritage Fund Development Phase.
• Carry out a simple skills audit with staff and partners to establish a baseline of competency and confidence levels around monitoring an evaluation.
• Deliver training to the project team and relevant stakeholders, including young people, to ensure they understand the purpose of evaluation, are confident with the key principles of data collection

Data Collection and analysis

• Produce monitoring templates, including survey design, simple focus group prompts, tools for collecting feedback
• Collate and analyse existing data and documentation from the development phase
• Establish a simple baseline for data collection which evidence can be collected against for several years
• Run focus groups as appropriate
• Run surveys

Reporting

• Deliver a brief interim report, including recommendations
• Deliver a final report, including an executive summary that can be used as a standalone document and is accessible to all stakeholders
• Support the playback to community stakeholders

Attendance of in-person sessions at school will be a vital part of this role.
