About

Scottish Government awarded a contract to Research Scotland for an independent analysis of the development and early impact of the Regional Improvement Collaboratives (RICs).

The review involved telephone-based or online interviews with national, regional, and local stakeholders, along with analysis of evidence provided by the Scottish Government and RIC partners.

The fieldwork built on work undertaken between January and March 2020, which was paused due to the pandemic, and aimed to inform a final report published in October 2021 to support further development of the RICs.

School interviews were required to be completed prior to the summer break where possible.

The contract value was £30,400.
