The problem
Intervention: Nurture groups: in-school resource providing developmentally-appropriate interaction and support
Who it was tested with: Parents and carers of children attending or having attended nurture groups in Northern Ireland.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"Pre- and post-measures with pupils and information gathered from school staff have been encouraging. Less research has been carried out with families of children who attend nurture groups. This research seeks to explore parental knowledge and experience of nurture groups in Northern Ireland." The study measured parent/carer perceptions before and after or during attendance but is presented primarily as an exploratory qualitative study with small numbers, placing it at practitioner evidence tier.
The document provides no specific quantitative results, effect sizes, or detailed qualitative findings. The sample is small and from a single school context. No comparison group or control condition is described.
