Monitoring and evaluation will be collected using the UPSHOT online system along with submitting final details using our online form.
The Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) of your project is important for both you and us to assess that your project is achieving what it set out to do.
It also provides evidence of your success for you to use in your future funding applications.
Young Barnet Foundation uses your M&E reports in the following ways:
· To ensure that we’re investing in organisations and projects that are making a clear and positive difference to young people in Barnet
· As evidence to help attract more funding into the Space 2 Grow fund.
We will ask you to collect the following information:
- Numbers of children/young people engaged, statsistics – age, gender, etc,
Total number of sessions held
Total cumulative number of visits (attendees per session x number of sessions held)
Total number of individuals you worked with (because a single individual might attend your project multiple times)
The age range of participants
Total number of contact hours (total no of attendees x session length)
The split of male and female participants (approx. %)
We will also ask for the following:
We will ask you to outline in about 100 words the key achievements of the project
We will ask for a quote from one participant
We will also for a quote from one session leader
A short anonymous case study on one young person
To submit at least one photo of your project (with relevant permission of any young people shown in shot or sufficiently anonymised)
Details of any financial or numerical variation
You will be asked to submit the information online no later than the 15 days from the completion of the project. This is because at the end of this round of funding we have to provide a report to the funder. It's really important that you set aside the time to do this at the end of the project. If you don't return your M&E in time, this might affect your organisations ability to bid for future rounds of Space2Grow funding.
We may ask for details on the budget spend if vastly different to the application form
