The delivery of the curriculum to disengaged young people in Scotland Sally Kendall (5957018) Mairi Ann Cullen (24740029) Richard White (138360) Kay Kinder (20863319) Migrated from ePrints This study commissioned by the Scottish Executive sought to explore the delivery of the curriculum to disengaged young people in Scotland. The study was divided into two phases: an audit phase and a case-study phase. The audit phase involved a national questionnaire survey of all secondary schools and FE colleges in Scotland, as well as a wide range of other organisations working with young people. A total of 357 questionnaires were returned completed, reflecting a 40 per cent response rate. The audit phase also included telephone interviews with a sample of 41 questionnaire respondents. A total of 16 interventions were selected for intensive case study. These interventions reflected a range of variables including geographic locale, age group, type of difficulty addressed, type of agency and type of provision. In addition, case studies were chosen because the work they were doing with disengaged youngsters appeared to be distinctive, either in its focus, or the type of activities involved. The case-study phase of the research included interviews with young people, their parents/carers, and strategicand operational-level staff. 2001-11-01T00:00:00Z Text Report 10.82444/warw.34046991 https://figshare.com/articles/report/The_delivery_of_the_curriculum_to_disengaged_young_people_in_Scotland/34046991 CC BY 4.0
