Heathfield - group work

 

Following on from our evaluation by the Centre for Public Health we have continued to conduct regular questionnaires with the young people we have taught.

Over the last month we have looked at the responses from 270 pupils and we are pleased to report the following:

  • 93% agree/strongly agree that the workshops improved their knowledge on violence
  • 95% agree/strongly agree that the workshops have helped them better understand the consequences of violence
  • 82% said that their opinions on violence have been positively changed
  • 93% said that they feel more confident in avoiding risky situations
  • 98% said other young people would benefit from the workshops

We are thankful to the pupils who took part in the feedback and will continue to monitor our achievements and our workshops closely to ensure we are meeting our aims to reduce violence.
