To understand why we think this, we need to do two things. Firstly, we need to look more closely at where precarious work is concentrated and understand who the casualised staff are. Secondly, we need to understand the impact that it has on teaching staff and on their work. This report is the first to provide evidence, from casualised staff themselves, showing the real costs of employing staff on precarious contracts.

  • Transport Policy Statement for Students Aged16-18 in Further Education and Continuing Students Aged 19 and Over
    Local Authority Transport Partnership Policy Statement 2014/15 Transport policy statement for students aged16-18 in further education and continuing students aged 19 and over Department Responsible: Children Adults & Families 1. Summary of Policy Statement and Main Objectives (this section should give an overview/statement of intent of what the LA’s transport policy is and what the subsequent desired outcomes are). This policy statement sets out the way in which South Tyneside Council has decided to exercise its powers and duties in relation to the provision of school and college transport for learners aged 16-19 in accordance with Section 509 of the Education Act 1996, as amended by Section 83 of the Education and Inspections Act 2006. The policy seeks to ensure that no South Tyneside learner is prevented from continuing in further education due to lack of transport provision or lack of financial support with transport costs. It outlines the provision of transport schemes and assistance for post 16 learners who live and study in South Tyneside or those learners who live in South Tyneside and attend an educational establishment outside of the Borough if it is the nearest provider offering the appropriate course. This document sets out the current policy of South Tyneside Council, which it should be noted could be subject to change in the future. Therefore, this policy does not amount to a legitimate expectation that any service currently offered will continue to be offered. This policy is based on the following key principles: • The promotion of increased independence and social inclusion of young people, recognising the context of their age and ability.

  • Open Letter to Gavin Williamson, Secretary of State for Education
    The Rt Hon Gavin Williamson MP Secretary of State for Education Department for Education 20 Great Smith Street Westminster London, SW1P 3BT 6th July 2020 Dear Mr Williamson, This September, 800,000 young people will be leaving schools, colleges and universities, hoping to join the labour market. In addition, many young people that were due to head to university this year are considering withdrawing due to Covid-19. With 8.4 million people already furloughed and uncertain about their futures, it is likely that young people with little work experience behind them will face unprecedented struggles in the labour market. The quality of career education and guidance in schools and colleges has been improving in recent years. Nonetheless, Covid-19 and the lockdown add additional barriers to delivering career education and guidance in schools and other education settings. Meanwhile those young people who are not in education have very limited access to career guidance and career guidance services for adults are increasingly stretched. We are therefore calling on the Government to publicly commit to a Career Guidance Guarantee so that everyone aged 16-19 in an education setting, those leaving the education system, those who are already NEET, and adults who are unemployed, will have access to quality personal career guidance to help them move them on to further education destinations, employment or to additional training and apprenticeships. High quality career education and guidance, including the opportunity to speak one-to-one with a careers professional, is now more important than ever in preparing young people for the world of work, supporting adults to manage career transitions and better aligning careers aspirations with labour market demand.

  • JSA Work Programme Referrals by Month and Provider
    Freedom of Information request 2014-10 Date received 2 January 2014 Date of response 30 April 2014 Information request Please provide your management information for your Work Programme providers’ submission of WP08 and WP10 referrals, covering total submitted per week. How many referrals have been made per week naming each submitting provider, broken down according to whether a WP08 and WP10 submitted? For the last 6 months. To clarify I want separate statistics for WP08 and WP10 referrals. DWP response With regards to your query on WP10 referrals we can confirm that the Department does hold some information falling within the description specified in your request. However, it is not readily available on the datasets available for analysis and we estimate that the cost of complying with your full request would exceed the appropriate limit of £600. The appropriate limit has been specified in regulations and for central Government it is set at £600. This represents the estimated cost of one person spending 3½ working days in determining whether the Department holds the information, and locating, retrieving and extracting the information. Under section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act the Department is not obliged to comply with your request and we will not be processing this part of your request further. A WP08 is used to raise a compliance doubt with regard to whether a Work Programme participant has failed to participate in a mandated activity and available within cost is the management information of Work Programme provider WP08 doubts referred, by month and provider. This is shown in the table below for April to September 2013.

  • A Micro-Econometric Evaluation of the UK Work Programme
    'I, Daniel Blake' revisited: A micro-econometric evaluation of the UK Work Programme Danula K. Gamage∗ Pedro S. Martinsy Queen Mary University of London Queen Mary University of London CRED & NovaSBE & IZA June 19, 2017 Work in Progress Abstract Although many countries are making greater use of public-private partnerships in em- ployment services, there are few detailed econometric analysis of their effects, in contrast to a large body of small-sample or qualitative case studies. This paper contributes to this literature by examining the case of the UK Work Programme, drawing on popula- tion data of all nearly two-million participants between 2011 and 2016. We also exploit the original structure of the programme to disentangle the impact of different provider and jobseeker characteristics from business cycle, cohort, regional and time-in-programme effects. Moreover, we consider both transitions to employment and transitions out of unemployment. Our main results indicate considerable differences in performance across providers and across jobseeker profiles. The latter results suggest that, by changing the incentive structure offered to providers, the government could obtain better results at the same cost. Keywords: Public employment services, job search, public policy evaluation. JEL Codes: J64, J68, J22. ∗Corresponding author.
