PE, sport, and physical activity multi-programme evaluation

DfE is interested in evaluating three core programmes in the PE & Sport space: the PE and sport premium, the Primary PE Package, and Opening School Facilities. We are exploring the possibility of procuring a large-scale combined evaluation programme to cover the three programmes.

We want to consult with the market on questions around the most appropriate, feasible and robust way to go about this ambitious project in order to help us shape the research to be commissioned to ensure high quality bids. This is also an opportunity for the market to suggest information that would be useful to include in the specification to enable them to develop proposals.

If undertaken, this evaluation would include:

Year 1

Years 2 and 3

Dependent on and informed by the findings of Year 1, Years 2 and 3 may involve:
