Annual national CU evaluations
Independent evaluation of the work of the CU has been undertaken
by 'Leadership for Learning - The Cambridge Network', led by
Professor John MacBeath of the University of Cambridge. The
formative approach to evaluation has been integral to developments
of the CU, most particularly in Professor MacBeath's contributions
to the development of the CU's quality assurance processes and to
the creation of a national Passport To Learning. Please
