Research and evaluations
Independent and internal studies, including the LEAP Phase 1 quasi-experimental evaluation.
Impact · Learning and Evidence
Learning and Evidence
The home for the research, evaluations and learning that tell us what is working, and what is not.
What this section will hold
The evidence behind the work
As our programmes run, this section will gather the studies, evaluations and learning that hold us accountable.
Evidence briefs
Short, readable summaries of what the evidence says, and what it means for practice.
Learning reports
What we learn as we deliver, including the fortnightly briefs that drive our improvement loop.
Pilot findings
Baseline, midline and endline results from ConnectEd, and Phase 0 proof of concept from LEAP.
Why it matters
Evidence is our discipline
We earn the right to grow by proving what works first. This section is how we keep that promise in public.
Evidence before scale
We expand on evidence, at explicit decision gates, not on optimism.
Honest about results
We report what we can show, attribute every figure, and never claim results before they exist.
A public good
Homegrown evidence that government, funders and other implementers can build on.
What to expect
How this will work
When it is live, Learning and Evidence will be organised so you can find what you need and trust what you read.
Organised clearly
By programme, by type and by status, so current and forthcoming work is easy to tell apart.
Updated each term
New findings publish as pilots reach their milestones, each with a clear date and source.
Connected
Linked to the Theory of Change Explorer and the Resource Library, so evidence sits next to the logic it tests.
In preparation
Learning and Evidence is being prepared
There is nothing to overstate here yet. As ConnectEd completes its first cycle and LEAP moves into its evaluated pilot, this section will fill with findings you can rely on. Below is what is already on the way.
Statuses shown are honest: forthcoming, in development or planned. No results are reported before they exist.
