National Evaluation of Sure Start
The national evaluation of the Sure Start programme is a long-term, wide ranging study designed to evaluate the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of Sure Start. The first phase of the national evaluation runs from 2001 to 2008 and is being undertaken by a consortium of academics and practitioners, led by Professor Edward Melhuish of Birkbeck College, University of London.
A summary of the evaluation is available on the National Evaluation of Sure Start website.
