BIS has published New Challenges, New Chances a consultation paper which intends to promote the government’s main overall aims for adult skills to promote high-quality teaching and learning at all levels of the adult education system; free colleges and other skills providers from as many bureaucratic restrictions as possible in order to allow them to respond more effectively to the needs of their local communities; and secure a fairer balance of investment in skills between the taxpayer, individual learners and employers.
The consultation will close on 21st October 2011. SCOLA will be participating in this consultation. The primary purpose of the consultation is to inform HOLEX responses and our own individual college responses to government.
