Hub for Evaluation of Applied Education and Innovation (HEAEI) Supporting you to better understand the impact of your work
The Hub helps education organisations understand, measure and evidence the impact of their work through flexible, expert led evaluation support.
From data analysis and survey design to bespoke programme evaluations, we make it easier to connect education practice with the Faculty of Education’s expertise and research.
Real-world evaluation needs to be flexible, context-specific and accessible. Our services are designed to meet organisations where they are — whether you’re just getting started or building a long-term evidence base.
Literature Reviews / QSR / REA
A clear, evidence driven foundation for your idea, intervention or area of practice. We synthesise academic and grey literature to provide practical insights that support confident decision making.
Pilot Studies
Test an idea or activity using qualitative and/or mixed methods. Pilots help you gather meaningful feedback, understand user experience, and refine your approach before scaling.
Theory of Change (and Workshops)
Structured support to help you understand where you are now, where you want to be, and what needs to happen to get there — building a shared foundation for evaluation and improvement.
Survey Design and Analysis Methodologies
Research driven survey design and analysis across quantitative and qualitative methods, providing a clear roadmap from design to delivery and interpretation.
Exploring Your Data / Data Cleaning
From data cleaning and formatting to visualisation and dashboards — helping you make sense of your existing data and use it more effectively.
Full Programme Evaluation
Expert led evaluation for your programme, project or activity. Bespoke design from theory to analysis, matched to your size, context and objectives.
Bespoke Consultation
An initial conversation with the Hub team to explore your needs, identify priorities, and shape the most useful next steps and outputs.
Our partners and collaborators
We work collaboratively with education organisations, innovators and partners to build meaningful, research informed evidence that supports improvement and impact.
