Mifec Policy Timeline The policy timeline presented in this document is a working document which forms part of a mixed methods study of Mathematics in Further Education Colleges (MiFEC) funded by the Nuffield Foundation. The documentary evidence includes reports published over a 22-year period between 1996 and 2018 by a range of stakeholders. Through a process of selection and review, the aim was to identify the key findings and how they may, or may not, have shaped the course of mathematics policy in post-16 education. Documents were selected according to their relevance to either post-16 mathematics education, or vocational education, or relevant wider reforms. These fell into four broad categories: • legislation and government consultation; • published reports led or commissioned by government; • published reports from other national organisations and stakeholder groups; • published documents on curriculum developments from a range of sources. The documents have been assembled into a timeline and the key messages summarised for each report (although these are not reported here). Other contextual changes have also been added to the timeline. Carefully chosen sector experts, each with specific knowledge and long experience in a relevant area (e.g. mathematics education, vocational education, government policy), reviewed and validated the timeline. This resulted in the following core dataset of 116 documents. The results of this study of mathematics policy in Further Education over time are reported in two academic papers (See Dalby, D. and Noyes, A. 2020. The waxing and waning of functional skills mathematics . Journal of Vocational Education & Training, pp.1-20. Available at: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13636820.2020.1772856).

  • Research Note: Former Special Advisers in Cabinet, 1979-2013
    Research Note: Former Special Advisers in Cabinet, 1979-2013 Executive Summary Sixteen special advisers have gone on to become Cabinet Ministers. This means that of the 492 special advisers listed in the Constitution Unit database in the period 1979-2010, only 3% entered Cabinet. Seven Conservative party Cabinet members were formerly special advisers. o Four Conservative special advisers went on to become Cabinet Ministers in the 1979-1997 period of Conservative governments. o Three former Conservative special advisers currently sit in the Coalition Cabinet: David Cameron, George Osborne and Jonathan Hill. Eight Labour Cabinet members between 1997-2010 were former special advisers. o Five of the eight former special advisers brought into the Labour Cabinet between 1997-2010 had been special advisers to Tony Blair or Gordon Brown. o Jack Straw entered Cabinet in 1997 having been a special adviser before 1979. One Liberal Democrat Cabinet member, Vince Cable, was previously a special adviser to a Labour minister. The Coalition Cabinet of January 2013 currently has four members who were once special advisers. o Also attending Cabinet meetings is another former special adviser: Oliver Letwin as Minister of State for Policy. There are traditionally 21 or 22 Ministers who sit in Cabinet. Unsurprisingly, the number and proportion of Cabinet Ministers who were previously special advisers generally increases the longer governments go on. The number of Cabinet Ministers who were formerly special advisers was greatest at the end of the Labour administration (1997-2010) when seven of the Cabinet Ministers were former special advisers. The proportion of Cabinet made up of former special advisers was greatest in Gordon Brown’s Cabinet when almost one-third (30.5%) of the Cabinet were former special advisers.

  • Baker to Balls: Do Politicians Really Make a Difference?
    Caroline Benn Memorial Lecture 2010 Baker to Balls: Do Politicians really make a difference? Lecturer: Barry Sheerman INTRODUCTION This afternoon I want to engage with you in a way that is appropriate at an event where we remember our friend and comrade Caroline Benn. Caroline was a formidable woman who loved to engage in the cut and thrust of debate. Caroline Benn is probably most famous for her passionate campaign for a fully comprehensive education system in Britain but I remember her as much more than that. When she worked with me when I was a young shadow minister it was obvious that she thrived on the lively exchange of ideas and it was her passion for fairness founded on social justice and education as the foundation stone for a fair society that shone through. She didn’t campaign for comprehensives as a panacea. It is Caroline’s passion for debate, the conviction she held that education was the key to social justice and indeed the fond memories I have of her that I reflected on as I prepared my talk for today. In view of this I hope that my contribution will lead to a vigorous exchange, that takes the longer view of the education debate in this country. I am sure that were Caroline here she would have much to say in response to what I put forward today. It is a great sadness that she is not. But I hope that it might inform the development of future policy as education enters a very different and challenging phase.

  • The Importance of Educational History
    FORUM Volume 51, Number 3, 2009 www.wwwords.co.uk/FORUM Lessons from the Past: the importance of educational history DEREK GILLARD ABSTRACT For the past twenty years, the training of teachers in England has consisted of little more than instruction in ‘delivering’ the National Curriculum. In this piece, Derek Gillard argues that there are now encouraging signs of a resurgence of interest in the history of education. He reviews the new edition of Clyde Chitty’s Education Policy in Britain, which looks at the history of education from a political perspective, and summarises the content of his own website, which is devoted to the history of Education in England. Education Policy in Britain (2nd Edn) CLYDE CHITTY London: Palgrave Macmillan 280 pages, £20.99, ISBN 978-0-230-22278-6 Education in England DEREK GILLARD http://www.dg.dial.pipex.com Voltaire described history as ‘nothing more than a tableau of crimes and misfortunes’, and Henry Ford famously said it was ‘more or less bunk’. In education, lip-service has often been paid to history’s importance in the curriculum, but it has endured a rather chequered career. After the Second World War it was often variously treated as part of social studies or integrated studies. Later, as a National Curriculum subject, it suffered interference from a variety of groups with political axes to grind, and more recently it has been effectively relegated to playing a minor part in citizenship education. The history of education itself has fared no better. For the past two decades, student teachers have spent most of their time learning how to ‘deliver’ the National Curriculum.

It draws on Gamble’s contrasting of the ‘politics of power’ versus the ‘politics of support’ to consider the extent to which Conservative immigration policy is influenced by periods in government and periods in opposition.
