SEEN Project Results

An essential part of SEEN projects is the sharing of pupil’s views with decision-makers and place-changers. The ways that children have represented their ideas, thoughts and findings are as varied as the projects themselves and over the years have included written reports, art displays, interpretation, power point presentations, public art, drama productions, signage and video.
