Londubh Project Evaluation – What the Children Say
“Children spoke of Londubh helping them to have fun, to get on better at school, to behave well in school, to control their
behaviour, to get help with problems at home and at school, and to be kind, nice
and good”.
![Page 17: Intergrated Services Process (ISP) – Government led initiative in 1998. ‘To develop new procedures to ensure a more focused and better co-ordinated response.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d2b5503460f94a011db/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Londubh Project Evaluation – What the Parents Say
“Londubh is an independent, non-judgemental body in the school. I’d look for (them) if there is a problem”
“Londubh is just another part of the school to the children, they love it”
Fantastic. You could approach them at any stage…They never push anything. They listen & advise”
![Page 18: Intergrated Services Process (ISP) – Government led initiative in 1998. ‘To develop new procedures to ensure a more focused and better co-ordinated response.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d2b5503460f94a011db/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Londubh Project Lessons Learned Along The Way
Agency rather than person dependent. Ownership of the vision is vital. Planning time/Evaluation time. In school but not “of school”. It takes time – patience & flexibility If children engage, attendance
improves.
