Teaching Excellence Framework Eligible Providers Year One Teaching Excellence Framework eligible providers Year One September 2016 Contents Teaching Excellence Framework: Provisional list of eligible providers – Year One 3 List of eligible providers for Year One 4 2 Teaching Excellence Framework: list of eligible providers – Year One This list details both publically funded and private providers of full and part-time Higher Education who meet the eligibility requirements set out in the Government’s White Paper for participation in Year One of the Teaching Excellence Framework. Publicly funded English providers on this list will be eligible to increase their fees up to the maximum tuition fee caps, which will be increased in line with forecast inflation (2.8%) for the academic year 2017/18. For all new students and eligible continuing students who are undertaking courses at publicly funded or private higher education providers that have achieved a TEF rating of Meets Expectations, the maximum fee loan will be increased by forecast inflation (2.8%) for the academic year 2017/18. For public and private providers that have not achieved a TEF rating of Meets Expectations, the maximum fee loan for full-time courses will be reamin at the levels that apply for 2016/17. Providers failing to meet the eligibility requirements for TEF Year One as set out in the Government White Paper do not appear on this list. For those providers in England, maximum tuition fee caps will, for 2017/18, remain at the levels that apply for 2016/17. Further details on student finance changes for 2017/18 were set out in a Written Ministerial Statement on 21 July 2016. Fees regulations will be laid this autumn and will be subject to Parliamentary scrutiny. Recognising the inter-connectivity of higher education across the UK, devolved administrations have given their consent for institutions from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to participate in this first year should they wish. Providers from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have been included on the list below. However, it is important to note that this does not imply any commitment by the devolved administrations to future changes in tuition fees (or other financial arrangements) for these providers. 3 List

    Aylesbury College REPORT FROM THE INSPECTORATE 1997-98 THE FURTHER EDUCATION FUNDING COUNCIL THE FURTHER EDUCATION FUNDING COUNCIL The Further Education Funding Council has a legal duty to make sure further education in England is properly assessed. The FEFC’s inspectorate inspects and reports on each college of further education according to a four-year cycle. It also assesses and reports nationally on the curriculum, disseminates good practice and advises the FEFC’s quality assessment committee. College inspections are carried out in accordance with the framework and guidelines described in Council Circulars 97/12, 97/13 and 97/22. Inspections seek to validate the data and judgements provided by colleges in self-assessment reports. They involve full-time inspectors and registered part-time inspectors who have knowledge of, and experience in the work they inspect. A member of the Council’s audit service works with inspectors in assessing aspects of governance and management. All colleges are invited to nominate a senior member of their staff to participate in the inspection as a team member.

  • A Case Study Exploring the Societal Gatekeeper Role of an Ofsted
    A case study exploring the societal gatekeeper role of an Ofsted inspector, using a systems thinking model of creativity, in the business studies curriculum in Further Education colleges in England by Jesvir Kaur Mahil BA (Hons), PGCE, MBA A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Education College of Social Sciences University of Birmingham August 2017 0 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract This study explored my own societal gatekeeper role as an Ofsted inspector, using a systems thinking model of creativity, within the domain of vocational business studies curricula, in Further Education (FE) colleges in England. My research questions sought to explore how business teachers and inspectors define, recognise, measure, reward and promote creativity skills in vocational business education. To provide a definition of creativity, I propose a framework based on its seven key aspects: process, person, place, pressures, product, persuasion and permanence. In addition to evidence-based success, I argue that we recognise the need for trust and freedom, through quality of relationships, to stimulate creativity.
