02/ The brief
What the notice says
Not fully read: this is the notice text; attached documents are not read.
The role of this research is to evaluate the 2024 Interpretation projects according to the framework developed in 2023. This will include a review of the framework to implement 'lessons learned' from last year's pilot and identify any refinements needed to cater for this year's projects.
The projects for inclusion in the research are:
• Belsay Hall, Castle and Gardens: New site-wide interpretation as part of the Belsay Awakes project
• Dover Castle: The Dover Castle: Under Siege project.
• Grimes Graves - Prehistoric Flint Mine: The Grimes Graves Project
• Chesters Roman Fort and Museum - Hadrian's Wall: Bridget Atkinson's Shell Collection
More information about each project is provided in the appendix, and full briefings on all projects will be given to the successful agency on appointment. Ideally these will be accompanied by site tours.
2. RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
The overarching objectives of this research are:
• Part 1 (10-20%): A review and refining of last year's evaluation approach, to be carried out with English Heritage's Interpretation and Insight teams and covering 'lessons learned' and questions arising from last year's research.
• Part 2: (80%-90%): Evaluation of the 2024 projects using the Interpretation Evaluation framework. This will need to include both evaluations of the individual projects and an overall 'national' report to feed into KPI reporting.
