People Like Me Project FAQs An opportunity to support your Year 11 students in making post-16 education choices   Dear Headteachers, My name is Dr Sarah Cattan, and I am excited to invite your school to participate in a new research project that can help your school support Year 11 students in making post-16 education choices. The project is conducted by researchers at the Institute for Fiscal Studies, the University of Oxford and the University of Birmingham and is funded by the STEM Skills Fund. At this point, I am only asking for an expression of interest from your school. Participating in the project will cost you nothing and will ask very little time of your staff. The overarching goal of this project is to better understand how Year 11 students make choices with respect to their post-16 education: if and what they want to study post-16 and why boys and girls sometimes make different choices. In particular, we are interested in understanding why girls are less likely than boys to study particular STEM subjects at A-level and identifying how they can be encouraged to do so. If your school participates in the project, your incoming cohort of Year 11 female pupils will have the chance to receive one of two exciting programmes aimed at encouraging them to study STEM subjects post-16. The first programme is a career event led by a female professional working in a STEM field, designed to provide information about STEM careers. The second programme is a £200 scholarship awarded to female pupils who obtain grades 7-9 in their maths, physics or computer science GCSEs and who continue to study at least one of these subjects at A-level. We cannot guarantee at this stage that your school will be selected to receive either of these programmes in the academic year 2019-20. However, schools that do not receive a programme in the upcoming academic year will receive one of them in the following academic year. Attached to this email please find an information sheet that will provide you with more details about the project. If your school is interested in participating, I would be grateful if you could reply to this email and send the contact name of the member of staff who would be able to take this forward at your school. This might be the Head teacher, Head of Year 10/11, or the Head of Maths or Science. We will send this person a follow-up email in late August with further information on what will happen next if the school is still interested in participating. I very much hope that you will take part in this exciting project and look forward to the possibility of working with your school. With best wishes, Sarah Cattan, PhD Study Principal Investigator Associate Director, Institute for Fiscal Studies sarah_c@ifs.org.uk FAQs
