Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These explanatory notes relate to the Further Education and Training Act 2007 (ISBN 9780105425076) which received Royal Assent on 23 October 2007. The Act implements proposals contained in the White Paper 'Further education: raising skills, improving life chances' (2006, Cm 6768, ISBN 9780101676823). The Act is in four parts. Part 1 makes provision for restructuring the Learning and Skills Council for England (LSC), the principal public body charged with planning and funding further education provision. It also places new duties on the LSC in relation to encouraging diversity and increasing choice in education and training. Proposals in the Act extend the powers of the LSC to design, develop and operate support services for persons and bodies involved in education or training and for educational institutions. The Act also clarifies the power of the LSC to form and invest in companies. In part 2, the Act transfers the power to incorporate further education institutions and to dissolve further education corporations from the Secretary of State to the LSC, and gives LSC the power to intervene in certain circumstances. Part 3 deals with industrial training levies, and part 4 contains miscellaneous and general provisions. The Act basically extends only to England and Wales.

Download or read book Leading for the Future written by Steve Lambert and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-17 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing the next generation of leaders is critical to the success of further education colleges. However, this has to be more than talent development or succession planning if colleges are going to succeed in the highly complex and political environment in which they currently operate. This book looks at developing future leaders through a different lens. The book advocates for leadership development to be located within a sustainable leadership framework which encompasses a range of existing leadership theories. This enables leadership to be developed holistically from deep within an organisation and provides a framework for developing individuals who have the skills necessary to lead further education colleges.

Download or read book Evidence Informed Leadership in Education written by Alison Taysum and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-02-14 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past three decades politicians, journalists, researchers within the academy, and neo-liberalist critics of state schools have articulated that educational research is neither meaningful nor worthwhile. Yet empirical evidence has revealed that research plays a key role in informing decisions made by educational leaders. This book explores the tools needed to conduct ethical educational research, and the contribution postgraduate research might make to the training and development of educational leaders and their thinking and practice within educational settings. Recent debates position the production and use of ethical educational research as important for Nation States' governments; Alison Taysum investigates the thinking tools required for such research and examines what good practice looks and feels like. Supported by international case studies, the study approaches and engages with the role evidence informed leadership might play in making the social justice agendas contained within the policies of a number of nations become reality.

Download or read book Challenging Boundaries written by Neil Garrod and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-01-13 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume will be an important and key resource for managers, researchers, and policy makers in the field of Higher Education and Further Education. It offers insights into a radical new way of organizing post-compulsory education on an international basis that directly promotes a social justice agenda (i.e., widening of student participation). Around the world post-compulsory education is divided between Universities and Community-based Colleges. Universities are typically concerned with "higher" education, while community based colleges focus on "further" and technical education. In response to a range of social and economic forces there has been a growth in the number of dual sector institutions (or "duals") that span this divide. Challenging Boundaries brings together leading international thinkers, policy analysts, academic managers, and researchers who question whether duals can provide relevant education to students and appropriate graduates for the economy, while also offering greater opportunities to disadvantaged students. Challenging Boundaries provides an analysis of the potential of "dual sector" institutions in North America, UK, South Africa, and Australasia. This volume draws on the very latest research findings and effectively looks to: Challenge conventional thinking about post-compulsory education Demonstrate how a number of institutions internationally are addressing the organizational, managerial, and cultural challenges of operating as dual sector universities Combine the latest research in the field from a range of international scholars with operational insights from university leaders Provide a key resource for education policy makers and researchers and students of educational policy and management at masters and doctoral level
Download or read book The Law of Higher Education written by Dennis Farrington and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2012-03-22 with total page 1325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by two leading practitioners, this comprehesive and practical guide to the law of higher education in the UK provides extensive analysis of the complex legal framework in which universities work and the remedies which may be sought in the event of disputes. The Law of Higher Education has been fully updated to take account of the many legislative changes which have come into force since the publication of the first edition in 2006. The impact of new charity law; changes in governance structures; developments in the law of employment; academic freedom issues; and the increasing presence of academies and other private Higher Education Institutions are all dealt with in detail, with reference to and analysis of the relevent case law throughout. Although focussing on UK laws, the new edition includes expanded material on the international context, which has become particularly important as institutions are increasingly involved in international exchanges and collaborations, as well as being subject to the increasing globalisation of higher education. The text is linked to the updating service on the Oxford Centre for Higher Education Policy Studies website, ensuring that readers are kept up-to-date with developments, even after publication.
