We conduct and commission a number of robust evaluations, surveys and research projects to assess the effectiveness of government-funded youth programmes. Each evaluation follows Central Government guidance for evaluation detailed in the Magenta Book. Monitoring and evaluation is embedded into programme design and youth evaluations explore a variety of questions, often including the impact of programmes and their effectiveness. Progress in delivering evaluations is reported as part of youth programme governance structures and evaluation reports are published on GOV.UK.
