External Evaluation Report EqualiTeach: Equally Safe Programme 'Embedding best practice in preventing and tackling identity-based bullying and developing tailored, whole-school approaches.'

This evaluation was carried out to find out whether the Equally Safe programme has changed schools' approaches to identity-based bullying and reduced incidents of it. It also sought evidence that the programme effectively delivered efficient training, resources and guidance to create networks of schools which are creating equal and inclusive environments and tackling identity-based bullying. Finally, the evaluation was looking for examples of the outcomes and impacts of the key elements of the programme. The evaluation drew on a range of data: documentary analysis; around 12 hours of recorded focus groups and interviews with teaching staff and pupils; and a survey distributed to all staff at the seventy-one participating schools. Key findings from the evaluation will be outlined below, or you can read the full evaluation report here: download full report.
