Results for Oasis Academy Brislington Breakdown by Destination Type Annual Activity Survery 2017 - Results for Oasis Academy Brislington This annual destination survey highlights the routes taken by young people on completion of year 11 in compulsory education and reflects their known destination as at 1st November 2017 as it is expected by this time young people will have made firm decisions as regards going into further education, training or employment. The purpose of the activity survey is to find out what students are engaged in after leaving school. In so far as it is possible, the survey reflects the young person’s settled activity and not merely their first destination after leaving school, which may be only a temporary activity.

  • Designation of a Body for English Higher Education Information Government Consultation Response
    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.
