Apprenticeship in England - United KingdomEduSkills OECD
England has launched a series of reforms that champion the institution of apprenticeship, and address some previous weaknesses. The reforms encourage more substantive apprenticeship programmes and a stronger funding framework. Despite these strengths, there is still some way to go to establish an apprenticeship system in England to match those of the strongest countries.
This report suggests several ways in which reforms might be adapted to achieve higher quality and better outcomes. An effective apprenticeship system involves various elements such as the development of the apprentice in the workplace by the employer and the broader education of young apprentices. The report argues that England should consider introducing regulations and standards to ensure that these elements are part of all apprenticeship programmes, and that the recently introduced apprenticeship levy supports high-quality training. In comparison to other countries, England has relatively few young apprentices. The report suggests England could facilitate transition from school to work by making better use of apprenticeships targeting school leavers.
Scotland's Curriculum for Excellence: Into the Future. Report presentationBeatriz Pont
Students in Scotland (UK) engage in learning through Curriculum for Excellence (CfE), which aims to provide them with a holistic, coherent, and future-oriented approach to learning between the ages of 3 and 18. CfE offers an inspiring and widely supported philosophy of education. Schools design their own curriculum based on a common framework which allows for effective curricular practices. In 2020, Scotland invited the OECD to assess the implementation of CfE in primary and secondary schools to understand how school curricula have been designed and implemented in recent years. This report analyses the progress made with CfE since 2015, building upon several months of observations in Scotland, the existing literature and experiences from other OECD countries. The OECD analysis and recommendations aim to support Scotland as it further enhances CfE to achieve its potential for the present and future of its learners. Just as Scotland’s Curriculum for Excellence was among the pioneers of 21st century learning, its most recent developments hold valuable lessons for other education systems and their own curriculum policies.
Scotland's Curriculum for Excellence: Into the futureEduSkills OECD
Scotland (United Kingdom) pioneered the approach to 21st-century curricula when it first conceived its Curriculum for Excellence (CfE). Rolled out in schools since 2010, CfE aims to provide students with a holistic, coherent, and future-oriented approach to learning between the ages of 3 and 18. In 2020, Scotland invited the OECD to assess the implementation of CfE in primary and secondary schools in order to understand the design and development of school curricula since 2015, aiming to uncover valuable lessons for other education systems and their own curriculum policies.
SoLT and PedR: spicing up learning and teaching in Higher Education.NewportCELT
Presentation by Professor Simon Haslett to the Partnership Conference 'Transition and Progression through Further Education into Higher Education' at the University of Wales, Newport, on Tuesday 27th April 2010. Professor Haslett is Director of the Centre for Excellence in Learning and Teaching at the University of Wales, Newport.
Tim Bullough & Anthony Sinclair: Working with your discipline's HEA Subject Centres. Slides from the University of Liverpool Learning and Teaching Conference 2009.
The Higher Education Academy was formed in 2004 as “a single, central body to support the enhancement of learning and teaching in higher education” in the UK. It currently spends about half of its ~£25million annual budget supporting a Subject Network of 24 National Subject Centres, designed to support teaching and learning across all the main subject disciplines in UK higher education. Although the Subject Centre network is well used by many academic staff, the majority probably have little contact with them. The aim of this session is to discuss ways in which teaching staff can work with, and potentially be supported by, the their discipline’s Subject Centre. Examples will include how staff at Liverpool work with their Subject Centre to develop teaching resources, help train and support fellow academic teachers and students, and even inform national policy.
Teaching Development Grants are a common way that Subject Centres support academic staff, providing funds to develop teaching resources or investigate teaching policy. A major study has just been completed by UKCME (the materials subject centre) analysing the characteristics of Teaching Development Grants which produced useful outputs for individual academics, departments and/or the discipline’s community. These will be discussed by UKCME researchers and colleagues in the History, Classics and Archaeology Subject Centre also based in Liverpool. The session should be of interest to any teaching staff at Liverpool who currently work with their discipline’s subject centre, or have thought about doing so but were not sure where to start.

Bostock King Parker ICED2014 slides Qualified to teachStephen Bostock
This document summarizes a presentation on the impact of national standards and key performance indicators (KPIs) on professional development within the market-driven higher education sector in the UK. It discusses how the trend toward professionalization of teaching has accelerated due to market forces and public policies increasing transparency. Three case studies of universities in the UK - the University of Bath, City University London, and Glyndŵr University - illustrate the different impacts of these drivers, including mandatory training programs, promotion pathways recognizing teaching, and KPI targets for staff qualifications. While national standards and public accountability measures have increased influence over institutional practices, they also risk focusing development work too narrowly on metrics rather than real improvement.

The UK education system is divided into four main parts: primary education from ages 5-11, secondary education from ages 11-16, further education which is optional after 16, and higher education. The curriculum is organized into key stages with mandatory subjects like English, maths, and science at each level. Teachers must complete initial teacher training with further opportunities for leadership roles like headteacher available after gaining experience. Examinations play an important role in the UK system with tests like the 11-Plus and GCSEs.
This document summarizes key aspects of the Cuban approach to education according to 5 criteria:
1) Education is a product of family, school, and society, not just schools.
2) Educational tasks are required from birth through cultural mediation and developing vivencia.
3) Adults and peers actively organize the social and cultural environment to enable learner participation.
4) Early education aims to create a positive emotional environment and facilitate independence through games, objects, drawing, and modeling.
5) Approaches for special needs build on these principles with additional support and compensation for deficits.

Wealth Taking or Wealth Making?:What Does The Evidence Tell Us About Effecti...Mike Blamires
This document summarizes research on effective practices in financial capability and entrepreneurship education. It finds that experiential learning methods are most effective. Regular evaluation of activities and assessment of learning outcomes, rather than just knowledge acquisition, is important. System-wide strategies and teacher professional development are needed to fully integrate these topics into curricula.
This document discusses quantitative and qualitative methods in educational research. It provides examples of quantitative approaches like standardized tests, surveys, and experimental methods. Qualitative approaches include action research, interviews, and documentary evidence. Both approaches are useful but have limitations, so a mixed methods approach is best. Important variables to consider include socioeconomic status, social disadvantage, ethnicity, gender, and school policies. Reliability and validity are also discussed.
This national study forms part of the series, 'Building Effective Research', edited by Andrew Murray and published by the Learning and Skills Research Centre (LSRC). This was commissioned as part of its strategy to enhance the impact of research within the post-16 (or learning and skills) sector, and was conducted by the LSRC plus a consortium of three universities: Leeds Metropolitan, St Andrew’s and Queen Mary’s, London. It comprises a review of relevant literature and five case studies of practice, as well as outcomes of workshops, where the findings were tested with people working in the sector.
Evaluation of the Communication Aids Project (CAP) DFES (2004) Rr580Mike Blamires
This document provides an executive summary of a research report that evaluated the Communication Aids Project (CAP) in the UK. Some key findings of the evaluation include:
1) Parents, educators, and speech therapists acknowledged that without CAP funding, many children would not have received communication aids. However, interviews found no notable positive changes in quality of life measures before and after receiving aids.
2) Children who received aids through CAP reported positive functional and quality of life changes, such as feeling less embarrassed or frustrated.
3) There was variation in the time it took for children to receive aids after applying to CAP, with some applications remaining incomplete after 12 months.
The evaluation provided recommendations around improving the application

The TTRB aims to provide free access to an extensive database of resources to improve teaching and learning for children with special educational needs and disabilities. It contains guidance, legislation, research, and materials for trainees and tutors on topics related to SEN/D. Users include students, tutors, teachers, and it receives over 124,000 page views per month from various countries.
Progression At Pupil, School And National LevelsMike Blamires
The document discusses pupil progress rates from key stage to key stage and factors that affect these rates. It finds that boys, deprived children, those with special needs, and mobile pupils progress at lower rates than peers. Girls and EAL pupils progress at higher rates. Ethnic groups with fewer FSM pupils achieve higher thresholds. White FSM boys make the least progress. Risky behaviors increasingly impact progress negatively. Progress varies by school deprivation levels and types. Early attainment strongly predicts later attainment. FSM pupils are less likely to meet thresholds for every prior attainment combination. One-to-one tuition of an hour or more can positively impact pupil progression when criteria are met and parameters followed.
Evaluation Of Virtual School Heads For Looked After ChildrenMike Blamires
The document summarizes research evaluating the role of Virtual School Heads (VSHs) for looked after children. Key findings include:
1) VSHs helped raise the profile of looked after children's education and had a positive relationship with improved educational outcomes.
2) VSHs worked in different ways but primarily took a strategic role advocating for children.
3) For the VSH model to be effective, local authorities need senior managers focused on tracking attainment and supporting educational progress for looked after children.
- The document discusses the Longitudinal Study of Young People in England (LSYPE), which tracks over 15,000 young people annually from ages 13/14 to 19/20 to understand their life courses and the impact of policies.
- It provides an overview of the LSYPE study design and data collected. Examples of how LSYPE data has been used to inform policies on issues like NEETs, EMA eligibility, and teenage pregnancy are given.
- The challenges of engaging policymakers and stakeholders with longitudinal data are discussed, and tips provided on marketing, consultation, accessible tools and analysis to facilitate engagement.
Defining the Eradication of Child Poverty in the Child Poverty BillMike Blamires
The document discusses the Child Poverty Bill, which aims to eradicate child poverty in the UK within 20 years. It outlines the challenges of defining child poverty measures in legislation given limitations of existing data. Key measures included are relative low income, absolute low income, material deprivation, and persistent poverty. Significant effort was required to communicate technical definitions to stakeholders and address debates during the bill's passage through Parliament.
Using Tellus data for National and Local IndicatorsMike Blamires
The document discusses several National Indicators in the UK that use data from the Tellus survey to measure outcomes for children and young people. It outlines the indicators on emotional health, bullying, participation in positive activities, substance misuse, and satisfaction with parks. For the indicator on participation in positive activities, it provides details on the questions and calculation method. Similarly, it describes the questions and calculation for the substance misuse indicator. It also notes challenges in using Tellus data for national indicators due to changes over time that affect comparisons.
The document summarizes changes made to the Tellus4 survey administered to children and young people in England. Key changes included moving the timing from summer to autumn, increasing the sample size, adding optional questions for local authorities and schools, and improving accessibility with versions in audio, symbol, and signed formats. Over 254,000 children and young people participated, answering questions on topics like emotional well-being, bullying, activities, substance use, and satisfaction with parks and play areas. Data was analyzed at the local authority level and used to calculate national indicators.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
