Evaluation of the Sport and Culture for Development programme
Overview
A mixed-method approach was used as there was a need to measure the qualitative and quantitative results (including impact) of this programme. The basic assumption underlying the use of the mixed-method approach is that both quantitative and qualitative methods used in an integrated manner facilitate a better examination of the relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, impact and sustainability of the SC4D programme. Consequently, both quantitative and qualitative approaches were applied to answer questions under the various evaluation criteria as presented in table 5 in the previous section.
The following constituted the data collection effort under the qualitative design rubric.
• Consultation and In-depth Interviews with the Chief, Education Officer, Assistant Chief Education Officer, The SC4D Coordinator, officers of the Allied Arts department of the Ministry of Education and the Youth and Adolescent Development Officer and the M&E Specialist of UNICEF.
• Key Informant Interviews (KII), Focus Group Discussions (FGD) were conducted with District and Regional Education Officers; Head and other teachers; community members, dorms parents/caregivers; families of students, and other key stakeholders.
These individuals were selected either because they were involved in the implementation of the programme, direct or indirect beneficiaries, or attached to institutions/Schools/centres/centres/communities where the programme was implemented (see Table below). The guide for the focus group discussion and the Key Informant Interviews were developed in collaboration with UNICEF Guyana personnel. At the Schools/centres/centre level, qualitative interviews were only conducted at SC4D Schools/centres.
