The evaluation
Description
Two Manchester schools have attempted to introduce some new ideas to help boost GCSE results. But they ve had to work fast to get them up and running. How did they do? At St. Peters RC High School, the maths department decided to hold drop-in sessions while asking parents to help out with revision at home. At Cedar Mount High School the English department took 80 pupils out of the school and into a local college for three days of intensive revision. This last programme in the series assesses the success of both initiatives with the help of innovation and education expert Paul Sternberg.
