Abstract

This evaluation investigated the implementation and outcomes of Be You over the period July 2021 to June 2023, undertaken by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER). The focus of this evaluation was on implementation processes, the Be You workforce, and the experiences of Be You users – the pre-service and current educators who have registered with Be You. The overarching aim was to provide clear recommendations that inform the development and rollout of Be You into the next four years. The evaluation framework was informed by a Theory of Change and 11 research questions structured around four levels of activity within the ecosystem: Be You inputs – the resources, Consultants and workforce; Learning community processes and outcomes; Current and pre-service educator processes and outcomes; and Child and family level outcomes. The evaluation used a comprehensive mixed-method research approach involving five main data collection activities of new and existing data, shown below against key Be You milestones.
