The RSAs are intended as a resource that can be used to identify regional strengths and any issues or mismatches arising, and so inform thinking about future planning and investment at a regional level. 1.2 The development and coverage of RSAs The content and geographical coverage of the RSAs was decided by a steering group comprising Skills Development Scotland, Scottish Enterprise, the Scottish Funding Council and extended to include the Scottish Local Authorities Economic Development Group during the development process. It was influenced by a series of discussions with local authorities and colleges, primarily about the most appropriate geographic breakdown.

  • Statistics Publication Notice
    Statistics Publication Notice Lifelong Learning Series 29th March 2011 Higher Education Students and Qualifiers at Scottish Institutions 2009-10 Statistics on Students and Qualifiers on Higher Education (HE) courses at Scottish Institutions 2009-10 are published today by Scotland’s Chief Statistician. This publication contains updates of the figures in the ‘Students in Higher Education at Scottish Institutions 2008-09’ publication, published on 17th March 2010, and updates of the figures on qualifiers from the ‘Attainment in Higher Education and Destinations of Qualifiers 2008-09’ publication, published on 29th September 2010. The figures reported here supersede those contained within previous releases. The release contains information on HE provision in higher education institutions (HEIs) in Scotland as well as Scotland’s colleges. Summary of Key Findings: • Both the number of students (287,565) and the number of entrants (147,465) to HE in Scotland reached record levels in 2009-10. Compared to the previous year student numbers increased by 2.8% and entrant numbers by 2.3%. • Recent trends in the number of Scottish students have shown increasing numbers in the last two years following a fall to 209,170 in 2007-08. Since 2007-08 the number of Scottish students has increased by 3.1%, students from the rest of the UK and from outside the UK have increased by 6.6% and 19.8% respectively (including an increase of 26.9% from EU students in the last two years). • In 2009-10 entrants from deprived areas were under represented by -3.8 percentage points. In 2001-02 representation of this group stood at -5.8 percentage points, since then representation has increased each year and is now at the highest level recorded, due to both a slight depopulation of deprived areas and increased participation in HE from those areas.

  • Audit Scotland to Public Audit Committee, Dated 25 October 2013
    Correspondence from Audit Scotland to the Public Audit Committee, dated 25 October 2013 Differential college pension liabilities (Official Report Col 1607) Confirmation that colleges can sometimes be faced with paying different pension contribution rates reflecting their share of the assets and liabilities of the particular local government pension scheme to which they are members. As the attached Excel file shows, this is indeed the case. Based on our analysis of three local government pension schemes: Individual colleges may be required to pay different contribution rates while being members of different pensions schemes Individual colleges may be required to pay different contribution rates within the same pension scheme In some cases, individual colleges may be required to pay different lump sums as well as different contribution rates Perth College pension arrangements Perth College - along with Angus, and Dundee Colleges – is a member of the Tayside Pension Scheme (TPS). Perth and Dundee account for the TPS under FRS 17 as if it was a defined contribution scheme. This is because, in the words of Perth College’s accounts, “scheme assets have not been tracked on a consistent and reasonable basis and that there is therefore scope within the administration of the scheme for a significant level of cross- subsidisation between participating employers” i.e. the college’s share of the scheme’s assets and liabilities can’t be identified on a consistent and reasonable basis. Conversely, Angus College takes the view that, based on actuarial advice, its share of the TPS’s assets and liabilities can be identified and it therefore accounts for the TPS as if it was a defined benefit scheme.

  • WHAN Publication Final Printer
    The Working in Health Access Network Interim Report and Discussion Paper January 2009 Foreword The Working in Health Access Network (WHAN) exists to increase interest in a career in health amongst school pupils. The focus of WHAN is to increase their aspirations and provide information concerning courses in healthcare in both universities and colleges - as well as introducing them to a wide range of exciting options for the future. The National Health Service (NHS) is the largest employer in the country and is central to the well being of the economy at large. At the heart of any strong and confident organisation is a knowledgeable, professional and motivated workforce. WHAN works directly with the next generation of health workers to ensure that the health sector is staffed by committed individuals with the skills required to help make Scotland a healthier, stronger, fairer, smarter and wealthier place in which to live, study and work. This report portrays the development of the WHAN network so far. It also raises questions and challenges for the future. As the current phase of WHAN continues until this July, the complete statistical analysis is not yet available. Nevertheless, there is considerable creativity, innovation and success in WHAN school and college activities. This report is an introduction to these activities; more detailed outcomes will be available from the middle of 2009. The project has forged a successful partnership. It grew out of the Working in Health Access Programme (WHAP) that was aimed particularly at medicine and veterinary medicine. The need to diversify to other health professions became apparent in order to fulfil the aspirations of young people, to provide realistic ambitions for them and, also, to be more cost effective.
