Description
This document presents the findings of a research evaluation of the Francis Crick Institute’s ‘Education Outreach Programme’ (EOP). The EOP is organised as an intervention for ‘sustained change in young people’s aspirations for a science or STEM career, and for them to feel that the Crick is for them’. It comprises a broad programme of age-appropriate activities such as practical science workshops in schools, work experience and mentoring, and professional development for teachers, targeted at state schools in the London borough of Camden. Our evaluation report is based on a broad consultation of the Camden schools’ community and Camden schools’ stakeholders. It has been designed to identify experiences and perspectives on the EOP; its potential impacts; and ways within which such impacts might be further extended and enhanced. Moreover, our report offers a critical analysis of the efficacy of the EOP as a model for science engagement, aspiration raising and cultural/professional change within school communities.
