Client Case Study

The Nuffield Foundation

Apex assisted the Nuffield Curriculum Centre on developing and defending the reputation of its Twenty First Century Science GCSE courses in the face of criticism, from within Parliament and the scientific community, of a "dumbing down" of science education in English schools.

We developed key messages and professional communication material, and designed and implemented a targeted programme of stakeholder engagement with key influencers and decision-makers, including meetings with Lord Adonis, then schools Minister, and Nick Gibb, then Conservative spokesman.

The programme also included organising a meeting in Parliament with MPs from the Science and Technology Select Committee, and with the Chair of the Education Select Committee.

The work also included identifying potential advocates of the C21 courses from within the scientific community, including drafting articles and statements for public use, as well as media coaching and advice when the Centre faced criticism in the press.
