120: Measuring the impact of partnerships with Beth Williams, Schools Partnership Manager, ImpactEd

In this episode, I’m joined by Beth Williams, Schools Partnership Manager of ImpactEd. We speak about how you can measure the impact of partnership programmes between independent schools and state schools.

Beth and her colleagues at ImpactEd frequently work with independent schools, most often supporting them to evaluate the impact their programmes are having on local partner school students, and supporting them to make any changes to their partnerships to further increase impact.

Beth and I reflect on the trend of genuine partnerships; ones which allow schools to work and play together in improving outcomes for all students.

Listen to this episode to hear Beth explain the theory of change approach and the four categories of data you should be collecting to best evaluate the impact of your partnerships.
