  • Business Engagement Framework
    OXFORD CITY COUNCIL BUSINESS ENGAGEMENT FRAMEWORK FINAL REPORT JUNE 2014 1 Executive Summary Oxford City Council commissioned this short report from Shared Intelligence through the Local Government Association Local Growth Adviser programme in order to provide advice on developing a comprehensive business engagement framework. Oxford is a major economic asset: the city is home to 4,100 businesses and contributes some £4.7bn to the national economy. The City is the service centre for the wider County economy and the location for most of the employment growth in Oxfordshire between 2001 and 2011. The Oxfordshire Local Enterprise Partnership recently submitted its Strategic Economic Plan to government, outlining its ambition to improve business support to promote innovation based economic growth. Oxford, along with Bicester and Science Vale, is one of the three principal areas of economic growth within the LEP. The other two locations have mechanisms to support a strong business voice to represent their interests. A key priority for Oxford City Council is therefore to develop a strong understanding of local business priorities in order to represent their interests to the LEP and promote economic growth in the City. In this context, a business engagement framework should: • provide a structured approach to communication between the City Council and local businesses on economic development issues; • enable businesses to develop a strong voice to support their effective representation within the Local Enterprise Partnership; • clarify for businesses how and where they can express their views on economic growth and other issues; and, • facilitate the development of sector specific projects and programmes or discussions in support of economic strategies.

  • Banbury and Bicester College
    Sharing Innovative Approaches to Delivering 16-19 Study Programme Principles Banbury and Bicester College Enterprise and Employability “At the heart of our model for Study Programmes is the development of employability skills through the learning company concept.” Rose Turner, Principal Banbury and Bicester College is part of Activate Learning1, a group which combines secondary, further and higher education along with workforce training, commercial business and social enterprise. The Activate Learning group was formed in September 2013, following the merger of Oxford and Cherwell Valley College, and Reading College in 2010. The group comprises Banbury and Bicester College, City of Oxford College, Reading College and Activate Enterprise. Activate Learning has a chief executive officer; each college has a principal and Activate Enterprise a director. In 2012/13 the three colleges recruited around 14,500 learners, two thirds of whom were adults on part-time courses. Most learners, currently, are on foundation and intermediate programmes and the group have around 1,800 apprentices in five subject areas. Oxfordshire and Berkshire are affluent counties with rates of unemployment below national averages. However, across both counties, there are areas of educational and social deprivation and the profile of learners attending the colleges reflects this. GCSE attainment in local secondary schools is broadly at, or just below, national averages, and many learners come to study and train at the colleges with attainment below national averages. The proportion of the population of Oxfordshire and Berkshire from minority ethnic backgrounds varies from around 25% in Reading to below 5% in Banbury and Bicester. However, the proportion of learners from minority ethnic backgrounds in the colleges matches or exceeds these local proportions.

At a time when Oxford needed to expand out of its historic core centred around the castle, the medieval streets and the major colleges, these two factors enabled the area to be laid out as a planned suburb as lands associated with medieval manors were made available. This gives the whole area homogeneity as a residential suburb.
