  • EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES a Report on School-College Partnership Programmes in Scotland
    EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES A report on school-college partnership programmes in Scotland EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES Context for publication of this report This is a report by HMIE for the Scottish Further and Higher Education Funding Council (SFC). The 2004-08 Memorandum of Understanding between HMIE and SFC, and successive annual service level agreements under that memorandum commit the two organisations to cooperate fully to secure and promote the quality of education provision in Scotland’s colleges and to work in partnership to promote continuous quality improvement and enhancement across the college sector. HMIE’s work as part of this partnership is wide ranging and includes: • the completion of external reviews of colleges, publication of these review reports, and additional actions specified by SFC where it has concerns about the quality of provision in a college; • briefings for SFC on matters of strategic interest, and professional advice on other matters relating to educational provision in Scotland’s colleges; • delivery of quality enhancement activities for college staff as specified by SFC, for example activities relating to the dissemination of sector-leading and innovative practice identified in review reports; and • preparation of reports for SFC on the current position in relation to specified aspects of college provision. This report is one in the final category above. It has been prepared by HMIE as part of the 2007-08 service level agreement with SFC. Because of its relevance to schools and education authorities as well as colleges, it is being distributed much more widely than most other reports in the series. EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES | 3 FOREWORD We have called this report Expanding Opportunities because for many young people, involvement in school-college programmes aims to help them to do just that, by allowing them greater choice in the subjects they can undertake at school and by involving them in different approaches to learning.

  • Student Accommodation Guide
    Student Accommodation Guide There are a range of accommodation types available to students. The most common types are university owned accommodation, privately owned halls of residence and private renting. If you are leaving home to study at university you will normally stay within a halls of residence for your first year then move to a privately rented flat for the remaining years of your course. Halls of residence can be owned by a university or privately and can be quite expensive at between £50 - £80 per week for self catering and up to £180 per week for catered accommodation. However they can be a good stepping stone from the family home to independent living as many facilities are often included in your rent such as meals, laundry facilities, internet access etc. Halls of residence also provide you with the opportunity to meet new friends and be around other students. For more information on halls of residence see the contact details of each university below. More information on private halls of residence can be found at: www.accommodationforstudents.com For more information on your rights whilst staying in student accommodation follow the link below. http://scotland.shelter.org.uk/getadvice/advice_topics/renting_rights/your_right s_in_student_accommodation Many students prefer to rent privately as it can be cheaper and offer a greater degree of independence than halls of residence. For students at college this is also a more accessible option as most colleges do not own student accommodation. For more information on private renting near your university or college, please see the contact details of all Scottish university and college accommodation offices, below.
