Case Study:
Assessing a new scheme at Suffolk Careers.
Marketry won a bid to provide an independent assessment of a government initiative for Suffolk Careers. The careers service needed to gauge the effectiveness of sending information about GCSE and career choices directly to all parents of pupils in school years nine and ten. Marketry designed a unique study to show the before and after impact of the information on parents, and talk to the school about their work with the careers service.
The study showed that the information Suffolk Careers sent to parents had prompted a discussion between the parents and their children, and allowed the service to quantify in how many instances this had taken place. They provided vital information for demonstrating the impact of the initiative. Hazel Gooch, Director at the service said: ‘The study gave us impartial feedback about what we were doing which was extremely useful. As an unexpected bonus, we found that a lot of our work was being appreciated by careers teachers.
Marketry is a pleasure to work with – a thoroughly professional organisation. I was incredibly impressed with the efficiency of the organisation from start to finish. We were absolutely clear about the time scale and time after time, Marketry came up with the goods.’
