More Information
 
Benefits
 
  • A higher profile for Colleges with influence in Community and Local Neighbourhood Renewal Strategies and greater coherence in inter-agency planning.
 
  • Facilitating attainment of College objectives including rolling out joint employment and skills planning arrangements with local partners, maximising linkages with regeneration opportunities, and skills development in the public sector
 
  • Greater awareness of learning and skills programmes and provision amongst local partners, leading to greater take-up of learning opportunities by learners and employers, and improving reach amongst disengaged or excluded individuals
 
  • Greater focus by partners on LSC targets, including possible collaboration on data issues
 
Constraints
 
  • Colleges currently compete for learners, and population projections indicate that the pool of potential 16 to19 learners is decreasing.
 
  • Government priorities currently dictate where funding is spent, this may not always coincide with local priorities.
