Opening Spaces: a evaluation and development of the uses of learning spaces at Tipton Academy and an evaluation of Lead Learners as a mode of student engagement

This is a two-tiered project. The first tier is concerned with the assessment of the current use of space at the Academy and the exploration of potential innovative use of space at the Academy.  This will be undertaken in collaboration with the lead learners. The second aspect of the project is the assessment of the impact of the lead learners on the school environment and the value of a collaborative approach between University researchers and lead learners as a method of student engagement.
