Thrive Impact Map - Professional working in children’s services outcomes

8th December 2020 | Impact Reports

This impact map is an output from an independent study (Courtney 2013) that was commissioned to help us understand more about the impact of Thrive and the positive outcomes it delivers for its various stakeholder groups.

During the early stages of rolling out the Thrive Approach in schools across the UK we began to sense that the outcomes of addressing interrupted stages in a child’s learning were likely to be felt for many years to come.

Whilst we set out primarily to help children access and engage with learning more easily, anecdotal evidence suggested that many outcomes from this process could be life changing, not only for children but also for their families and society as a whole.

Three main groups of stakeholders were consulted to gather measurable data on outcomes including:

  • head teachers
  • teachers
  • support staff and professionals working in children’s services

Attempting to collect data directly from children, parents and families was beyond the scope of this study due to resource and ethical constraints, and so information relating to changes for these groups was gathered from the above stakeholders. In fact the Theory of Change work had already proved this to be both possible and evidential.
