To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps he is taking to ensure that students' views are represented on the board of the Office for Students.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps he is taking to ensure that students' views are represented on the board of the Office for Students.
The Office for Students’ (OfS) central mission is to operate in the interests of student and its statutory duties reflect this. We will expect all members of the Board to engage with students to ensure they understand the issues that they face and have these as considerations when making decisions. However, to further strengthen the voice of students on the Board, the Higher Education and Research Act made provision for there to be at least one member of the Board with experience of representing or promoting student interests.
There is currently an interim student representative on the Board, who is also a full member of the Student Panel. The OfS’s Student Panel has been set up to advise the board and senior team of the OfS. It has thirteen members and this membership includes current undergraduate and postgraduate students, part-time and international students, prospective students and recent graduates. They will bring a diverse range of views and perspectives to bear on the work of the OfS.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many students aged 24 or over will have their funding delivered via a devolved budget in 2019-20.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many students aged 24 or over will have their funding delivered via a devolved budget in 2019-20.
The department is not yet able to set out the level of funding that will be devolved in 2019/20.
Devolution is dependent on agreement between the department and the Mayoral Combined Authorities (MCAs) to a number of readiness conditions. From 2019/20 the MCAs will be responsible to deliver the Adult Education Budget in their areas.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many general further education colleges sub-contract their adult education budget; and how many adult students have been educated in this way in each year since 2010.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many general further education colleges sub-contract their adult education budget; and how many adult students have been educated in this way in each year since 2010.
We are unable to provide accurate data for the total number of adult students that were educated by Further Education (FE) colleges in this way.
FE colleges have historically submitted declarations for subcontracting activities. At the time of making a declaration, each college details the maximum value of the contract they have in place with each of their adult education budget subcontractors, which is referred to as their ‘subcontracting commitments’.
We typically ask colleges (and other providers) to make their subcontractor declarations each Autumn and again each Spring. While this provides relevant data during the funding year, it does not offer the end of year figures. We are unable to ascertain from this particular data what the end of year position is for each college because some may have recruited new subcontractors after the Spring declaration. Others may have employed a subcontractor, though a learner might not of started a course. Therefore, these declarations do not provide an accurate picture of the subcontracting that took place each year.
