Following on from the WP7 meeting last week, I have developed a series of data collection instruments and protocols for the school interventions, which are stored in a folder in WP7. This includes all the information you should need to apply for ethical approval, such as sample informed consent/assent documents, overarching evaluation protocol (data preparation and analysis to come), surveys, interviews, teacher reflective diary and documents detailing the protocol for each form of data collection.

All partners involved in interventions this year should review the documents, add comments and make suggested edits by 6th March. I am also happy to receive any direct email queries.

Please complete this Doodle by 1st March to arrange a review meeting to further discuss data collection. Please ensure at least one member of your team, involved in the interventions, professional development or co-design workshops completes the Doodle. Unfortunately due to other responsibilities I am unable to arrange a meeting prior to the 7th March and the 10th is the OMT.

Any partner waiting to apply for ethical review can use all of the documents in their current state as amendments will only be minor - aka no new data collection instruments and no new lines of questioning. If you have any specific questions about ethics I would be happy to help, so please get in touch directly.

Hope you have a lovely weekend.

All the best,

Carina
