Description
As part of the Grant Funding Agreement, Falmouth University must deliver an evaluation of the project undertaken by an independent, external evaluator. There is specific monitoring and evaluation guidance (published by the Cornwall Council's Good Growth programme team).
The evaluator will be required to:
• Fully understand the Launchpad Futures project and the Good Growth programme (including the Local Investment Plan, Monitoring and Evaluation Framework and the Good Growth principles)
• Design and conduct the evaluation
• Share a draft report for Falmouth University to review before submitting to the Good Growth Team.
The evaluation should include the following:
• An assessment of the Launchpad Futures project's context, objectives, management processes and delivery arrangement.
• An assessment of project progress against contracted spend, outputs and outcomes targets.
• An assessment of the cost-effectiveness of the project and its value for money.
• An assessment of the lessons learned, best practice and successes to inform the future shape of related activity following completion of the SPF funded phase of delivery.
• An assessment of the project's impacts including contributions to the Good Growth principles and those not captured by contracted output and outcome targets.
Please note that external evaluators are expected to quantify the impacts of the intervention in terms of gross value added (GVA) and employment.
