Education
Schools, Colleges and Universities are all about the learning, knowledge, and development of our young people to enable them to take a valuable role in society.
Good education is at the heart of our society, and is central to government and family agendas. Whether it is through Schools, Colleges or Universities, the quality of teaching and educational standards is paramount. It is one of the 3 largest employment sectors in the UK and by 2011 it is forecast that we will spend 5.6% of the UK’s GDP on education.
Education is not short of standards, qualifications and measurement systems. OFSTED inspections, league tables and examination pass rates, provide a continual scrutiny and test of performance.
Drivers for change in the sector include:
- Increased pressure to meet efficiency targets and achieve value for money as well as educational excellence.
- The intelligent use of ICT and new learning media.
- Government’s Building Schools for the Future programme.
- The increasingly complex management of Schools, Colleges and Universities
- Developing leadership, management and teaching skills to deliver improved outcomes for all learners.
