Lessons learned from evaluations of our teacher-led outreach programmes

Overview

Like many STEM outreach organisations, EngineeringUK co-designs a wide range of programmes and activities that use various delivery models. This report examines our ‘teacher-led’ activities, reflecting on the range of methods we employ across these and what our evaluations suggest works well.

We draw upon EngineeringUK’s evaluation findings from multiple programmes and activities across the last 3 years. The report focuses on the process and impact of outreach delivery, from teachers’ decision to participate through to benefits for students. We use examples of teachers’ experiences to highlight what works well from their perspective and, therefore, what STEM outreach organisations could strive to provide.
