growth in confidence

persönliche Entwicklung / Erwerb von sozialen und personalen Kompetenzen

During the research, participants spoke about the course activities that they had enjoyed and, along with teachers and support workers, referred to a growth in confidence that had resulted from their achievements on the RESPECT programme. Students spoke about pushing themselves further than they thought they could and the realisation that, as one boy said, ‘I can actually do stuff’. Others spoke about particular activities that had encouraged them to think that they could do things when they set their mind to it.

RESPECT Programme
RESPECT was a targeted intervention for young people who were disaffected and/or displayed antisocial behaviour. The programme comprised four elements: • Option One – a disciplined and practical course based around fire service activities; • Option Two – a tailored youth work and informal education programme led by the Youth Federation; • On the Streets – a detached youth work project; • a summer holiday project.

Evaluierung der Aktivität

A three year evaluation was built into the RESPECT bid in order that the individual, community and societal benefits of the programme could be quantified and evidenced. The evaluation employed a range of research tools, methods of data collection and analytical methodologies including individual interviews and focus groups with young people and staff; Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaires completed by the young people who took up a place on the course; in-depth questionnaires completed by their support workers and teachers; the analysis of progress sheets that were maintained by staff; graduation surveys completed by parents and carers; observation of activities; RESPECT referrals forms; Social Return on Investment.
Between September 2006 and March 2009: a total of 554 young people
