Evidence is a fact or piece of information that helps to prove that something is or is not true.

Data is a collection of facts or figures that can be analysed to provide information.

A service is a system that supplies a public need, for example waste collection.

This Unit links directly to 'Local area: Why are trees and forests important?', where pupils will continue to evaluate the local area by investigating green spaces and trees.

This unit builds on 'UK region: Why is the Lake District a National Park?' in which pupils learnt about issues at a regional scale in the Lake District, and it develops 'Local area: How is it changing?' in which local area change was identified and recorded. This unit is about evaluating change with a futures’ perspective.
