The programme is administered and evaluated by NCS Trust.</p><p> </p><p>Early pilots have demonstrated some positive impacts. For example, a pilot run in conjunction with the Behavioural Insights Team found that young people who are given a “buddy” before NCS are up to 6% more likely to turn up on programme, reducing unfilled places and unit cost. Another found that when specialist one-to-one support was provided to young people with complex needs, including young people referred through social services, Youth Offending services or Looked After Children services, 72% were able to complete NCS, which brings this group into line with average completion rates.</p><p> </p><p>In 2018, NCS Trust will continue to pilot and evaluate new ways to improve the programme, including through new partnerships with sector organisations such as the Scouts and Sea Cadets. <strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch question first answered 11/01/2018 13:35:51 answering member 3950 label Biography information for Dame Tracey Crouch
