Abstract

This paper draws upon a study of the perceptions of legacy held by educational stakeholders prior to the 2012 Games. These perceptions were elicited through the use of Q methodology. Q methodology was chosen as a way of exploring the different standpoints around the key legacy issues of education, regeneration and sustainability. Within this study these perspectives resolved into distinct factors, which were interpreted and discussed through the frameworks of Gratton and Preuss (2008) and Bourdieu (1977, 1984, 1986, 1990, and 2000). Subsequent to the Games these perspectives have been used in a deliberative engagement with key informants engaged in legacy activity. The paper will explore the outcomes of these discussions and the potential for this approach to be used in a systematic way in the development of policy and practice in the future.
