Support and consultancy
We support a wide range of organisations and collaborations through training, co-design, consultation, organisational development and strategy development.
Areas of specialism include:
- Creative learning approaches, including project-based and enquiry-based learning, understanding creativity, developing children and young people's ideas
- Supporting organisations understand and develop the purpose, and often social impact, of their work
- Progression, young leadership and motivation for students to teach themselves
- Young person-led practice and approaches
- Mapping, analysis, visualisation, and wading through data to come up with clear insights and recommendations.
A selection of current and recent projects is below.
