  • Background to Rationalisation of Further Education in Scotland As a Response to the Economic Downturn, the Scottish Government H
    Item 3 16 June 2014 Background to rationalisation of Further Education in Scotland As a response to the economic downturn, the Scottish Government has undertaken a rationalisation of Scotland’s further education sector, reducing 43 colleges to 13 regional structures, some of which contain more than one college – known as multi- college regions. The aim is to reduce duplication of provision, ensuring that programmes of learning are tailored to match the needs of local employers and contribute to the growth of the Scottish economy. The Scottish Government wants a strong regional grouping of colleges who act strategically to improve the skills in their area and across Scotland as a whole. It is expected that regional colleges will identify the needs of learners and employers in their region. Colleges will plan provision with partners and allocate resources across their region for the delivery of high quality learning. Colleges have to ensure that there is a reasonable range of provision available locally to all communities across their region The Outcome of Rationalisation: Glasgow multi-college region Glasgow has been deemed a multi-college region where, seven colleges have been reduced to three through the process of merger. Glasgow Clyde College: established in August 2013 through the merger of three colleges: Anniesland College, Cardonald College and Langside College Glasgow Kelvin College.: established in November 2013 through the merger of three colleges: John Wheatley College, North Glasgow College and Stow College The City of Glasgow College is the third college in the Glasgow Region Regional Strategic Board In August 2014, a new legally constituted Regional Strategic Board will take responsibility for college delivery in Glasgow.
