It has been announced that the CASCADE team from Cardiff University will be the evaluator for the Frontline programme.
Professor Jonathan Scourfield will lead a team of researchers tasked with:
– Assessing whether Frontline is successful in attracting high quality graduates
– Examining the quality of the delivery of the Frontline programme to assess whether the key elements are being delivered to a high standard
– Measuring the quality of practice skill that Frontline participants develop
We look forward to working with the team and welcoming them to the Summer Institute which begins Monday 28 July.
