The committee will be chaired by Vice-Chancellor Mikael Alexandersson of Halmstad University in Sweden; other committee members are from Belfast, Helsinki in Finland, Ljubljana in Slovenia, Utrecht in the Netherlands, and Norway.

Professor Livingston was invited to take part in the evaluation because of her specialist knowledge of curriculum assessment, pedagogy and teacher education.
