Issues facing the further education sector

The challenges for colleges revolve the freedom to change the Instrument & Articles, increased emphasis on larger, more business-like colleges and increasing merger and collaboration activity. There is increased pressure on governing bodies.

How we can help

We can help with all these areas. Recent projects include:

  • numerous merger projects
  • governance advice including publishing the Annotated Guide to the Instrument and Articles of Government as part of our governance service for the FE Sector
  • estates redevelopment projects
  • setting up academies and UTCs  

As well as working with FECs, we also work with a number of sector bodies in the FE sector and are regularly asked to speak at sector conferences and events. Recently we have:

  • delivered interactive sessions at the National AoC conference
  • delivered interactive sessions at the AoC HR conference
  • delivered interactive sessions at the AoC Health & Safety conference
  • delivered sessions at ACER and AOSEC events.
