Neighbourhoods and Schools: PASCAL Project for the Scottish Executive

Steve Rubin's picture

This project is a contribution to on-going analytical work in the Scottish Executive to underpin elements of the regeneration strategy, People and Place, published in February 2006.   The Scottish Executive is interested in better understanding ‘neighbourhood effects’, and the factors and processes that produce them.   A particular aspect of this relates to the complex impacts of neighbourhoods on schools within them, and conversely of schools on the neighbourhoods in which they are situated.   PASCAL associates co-ordinated by John Tibbitt have reviewed the knowledge-base relating to these issues and have just provided a ‘state-of –the art’ report to the Executive. It is envisaged that the full report will be made available more widely at a future point.
