The decision is to work with Essex University
as the local university ensures that the project has different
levels of evaluation over a two year period, so that progress can
be tracked to cover the following:
Pupils
Parents/Carers
Whole school culture
The university will provide the academic rigour and the Council
also has an MOU in place with the provider so that both parties
acknowledge and support each other's priorities.
The University project plan and the Cabinet report relating to
Community Projects are attached. Other documents such as the PID
are available on request. A further update relating to the
Wellbeing Hubs is due to go to Cabinet in May 2021.
