    Designation of a body for English higher education information Government consultation response January 2018 Contents Introduction 3 Summary of responses received 4 Main findings from the consultation 4 Question analysis 5 Questions 1-2 5 Question 3 6 Question 4 7 Next steps 8 Annex A: List of organisations that responded to the consultation 9 Annex B: HESA Expression of interest for the role of the DDB 13 2 Introduction In order to meet the relevant consultation requirements set out in the Higher Education and Research Act 2017 (HERA), the Department for Education, on behalf of the new Office for Students (OfS), sought views from respondents across the HE sector, including providers and students on the role of the Designated Data Body (DDB) and the functions that it must carry out. It followed an invitation for expressions of interest in the role which closed on 19 September, and to which one body, the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) provided a submission. The consultation, published 19 October 2017, therefore explored the views of respondents on the suitability of HESA to fulfil the role of the DDB, and on the suitability of any other organisation which consultees wished to suggest, but which had not expressed an interest. The responses to this consultation received both digitally and informal written responses are now informing the OfS’s recommendation to the Secretary of State on designating a data body and decision-making and design in relation to its regulatory framework, which will be published by the end of March 2018. 3 Summary of responses received Overall there was overwhelming support for the HESA as a body that is credible and suitable to fulfil the role of the DDB.

    Foundation Degree in Contemporary Art & Professional Studies Student Handbook 2013– 2014 1 Foundation Degree in Contemporary Art & Professional Studies Campus: Weston College University Campus, Loxton Road, Weston-super-Mare, North Somerset BS 23 4QU. Foundation Degree in Final Award Contemporary Art & Professional Studies Intermediate awards available Credit for modules passed WWC2 UCAS code Details of professional body accreditation None Relevant QAA Benchmark statements Art and Design Date specification last up-dated Dec 2008 Introduction Can you learn to be creative? We believe that the acquisition of skills and specialist knowledge is a key that allows us to unlock our creativity. This provides us with a means by which to look afresh at both the natural world and at the debates that inform and represent cultural perspectives. However we also believe that the once clear distinction between the Fine and Graphic Arts is blurring, resulting in new discourses about the nature of consumerism in Art and the application of design. In response to this, the Contemporary Art & Professional Studies course at Weston will encourage you to engage with challenging ideas, develop practical skills for a contemporary setting, become more aware of the commercial potential of your work and develop the skills necessary to market it to a chosen audience. You will be a student of Bath Spa University studying at Weston College University Campus This site houses Art, Design and Music Foundation Degrees, within a spacious purpose built facility with well-equipped studios and workshops. At the conclusion of your Foundation Degree, you will have the opportunity to apply to upgrade your degree to a B.A.
