FE Governance

Framework for Excellence and Governance

Event Overview

The focus for this second joint LSIS/LSC event will be on understanding both the impact of the Framework for Excellence on colleges, and on governance, as its use evolves and develops.  The Framework is a core part of the Government's work to raise standards and support key policies, particularly in relation to the skills of young people and adults. This event will provide not only an opportunity to hear from representatives from the LSC and OFSTED, but also to hear about the experiences from some of the colleges who have been proactive in implementing the Framework.  Opportunities for peer conversations and discussions are also included, together with an opportunity to question our 'expert witnesses'.  This event offers an important opportunity for governors and clerks to develop an understanding of the Framework for Excellence and its likely impact on their governing board and the work of their colleges.
