DCSF: Activity Agreement Pilots - Process Evaluation Research Information

DescriptionThe Activity Agreements Pilots were launched in April 2006 in 8 areas of England. AA was an initiative aimed at testing the effectiveness of conditional financial incentives along with intensive support and brokerage of tailored activities in re-engaging young people aged 16 -17 who had been NEET for at least 20 weeks. In taking part, young people were offered a weekly allowance in return for committing to a plan and completing agreed activities to reintegrate them back into learning and / or employment. Three levels of incentive payment were tested. This report focuses on the process evaluation, which comprised three waves of fieldwork in the pilot areas. Respondents included project managers, operational staff from Connexions and local LSCs, and representatives from education and training providers.
