T830 Make Happen Quasi-DPS

Descriptions

Make Happen is a collaborative project which is funded and monitored by Office for Students (OfS), with the funding held at the University of Essex, as the lead institution. Make Happen is the working name of the current National Collaborative Outreach Programme partnership for Essex, although it is also known as the Essex Collaborative Outreach Network (ECON). Currently, Make Happen uses a model where schools and those including sixth forms work collaboratively with their Collaborative Outreach Officer to design a programme of activity which suits their needs and encourages students to progress to higher education. Further Education (FE) Institutions follow a Make Happen led programme, where students are exposed to a variety of workshops linked to their future successes, including CV and Personal Statement Writing, applications to HE and what to expect on an open day. As it stands, the National Collaborative Outreach Programme (NCOP) brings together 29 partnerships of universities, colleges and other local partners to deliver outreach programmes to young people in years 9 to 13. Their work is focused on local areas where higher education participation is lower than might be expected given the GCSE results of the young people who live there. The current programme started in January 2017 and aims to: •reduce the gap in higher education participation between the most and least represented groups •support young people to make well-informed decisions about their future education •support effective and impactful local collaboration by higher education providers working together with schools, colleges, employers and other partners •contribute to a stronger evidence base around 'what works' in higher education outreach and strengthen evaluation practice in the sector. We are looking to find suppliers to deliver schools and/or FEI activity which support the goals above. The activity could focus on whole year groups, focused group activity or one to one activity. The duration of the Quasi-DPS will be for initial period of 20 months, with the option to extend for a further 3 x 12months (in 12 months increments), subject to confirmation of funding by the Office for Students.
