Aims of the Evaluation
The initial aims of the evaluation were to:
1) Identify “what works” by analysing the 20-24 NOLB delivery (understand performance and impact)
2) Review the mechanisms used to allocate the funding and the costing methodologies utilised over that period (understand the varied funding models and monitoring approaches and explore partnerships approaches)
3) Create a value for money framework for the future use of funding (to establish a more robust approach to the use of the funding going forward)
This would allow the Glasgow Futures Local Employability Partnership (GFLEP) to:
1) Decide the scope and focus of NOLB funding from April 2026 onwards
2) Decide on and implement a funding allocation method and payment methodology
3) Establish and plan the implementation of a value for money framework to evidence the impact of funding going forward
