Brief overview of some of the impacts of Open Futures.

"Children from East Preston Junior School were invited to evaluate the Open Futures 'End of Pilot 2010 Conference'. They worked on the project in the run up to the conference and arrived fully prepared. Over two days, they interviewed a range of conference participants and inspirational speakers. The children edited together the interviews and presented their short film evaluation to close the conference. The film is a testament to what can be achieved when you let children loose on something, and they are enjoying learning. "

Over a 3 year period Chiltern Primary saw improvements in reading, writing, SPAG, maths and R/W/M combined. Their presentation gives examples of how they used Open Futures to teach the National Curriculum.
