  • Sutton Trust and Education Endowment Foundation
    The Pupil Premium, Next Steps - Sutton Trust and Education Endowment Foundation Date 3 September 2015 Author Mark Upton LGiU/CSN Associate Summary The Sutton Trust and the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) recently hosted a summit meeting bringing together policy-makers, academics and the teaching profession to discuss the future of the pupil premium. It considered a new report Pupil Premium: Next Steps (July 2015) which made a series of recommendations including that the government should automatically reward schools that successfully and consistently improve results for their disadvantaged pupils and for introducing more effective systems to allow schools to identify pupils eligible for pupil premium funding. New polling commissioned for the summit revealed that 50% of primary school teachers and 44% of secondary teachers feel the premium is being used to continue activities that would not otherwise happen due to funding pressures in other areas of their budget. It also shows that the use of evidence in the classroom is growing: 64% of school leaders said they used research to decide how to spend their pupil premium, compared with 52% in 2012. This briefing will be of particular interest to cabinet portfolio and overview and scrutiny (elected) members and senior officers with responsibility for education and for children in care. Briefing in Full The Sutton Trust and the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) recently hosted a summit meeting on the future of the pupil premium bringing together policy-makers, academics and the teaching profession to discuss how best to improve attainment for disadvantaged pupils, and closing the gap between them and their peers.

  • A Guide to the Government for BIA Members
    A guide to the Government for BIA members Correct as of 26 June 2020 This is a briefing for BIA members on the Government led by Boris Johnson and key ministerial appointments for our sector after the December 2019 General Election and February 2020 Cabinet reshuffle. Following the Conservative Party’s compelling victory, the Government now holds a majority of 80 seats in the House of Commons. The life sciences sector is high on the Government’s agenda and Boris Johnson has pledged to make the UK “the leading global hub for life sciences after Brexit”. With its strong majority, the Government has the power to enact the policies supportive of the sector in the Conservatives 2019 Manifesto. All in all, this indicates a positive outlook for life sciences during this Government’s tenure. Contents: Ministerial and policy maker positions in the new Government relevant to the life sciences sector .......................................................................................... 2 Ministers and policy maker profiles................................................................................................................................................................................................ 7 Ministerial and policy maker positions in the new Government relevant to the life sciences sector* *Please note that this guide only covers ministers and responsibilities relevant to the life sciences and will be updated as further roles and responsibilities are announced.

    New cabinet secretary Simon Case has a lot to prove and even more to do Blog post by Senior Associate Joe Armitage, 2 September 2020 Simon Case, who was appointed permanent secretary of 10 Downing Street this May, has been confirmed as the next cabinet secretary. At 41, he is the youngest person in the position since Lord Hankey, for whom the role was created in 1916, during the middle of the Great War. Like Hankey, Case will sit next to the prime minister at meetings of the Cabinet and assume ultimate responsibility for the management of the government’s bureaucracy at one of the most challenging moments in the country’s history. It’s widely known in Whitehall that he wasn’t the first pick for the job. The prime minister hoped Sharon White - the former CEO of OFCOM and current chairwoman of John Lewis - would agree to re-enter government and take on the role instead. Chris Wormald, permanent secretary of the Department for Health and Social Care, is understood to have been considered second favourite. Key Number 10 political staff have placed a great emphasis on recruiting people with a scientific background into key roles, labelling those with arts degrees and a private education as “public school bluffers.” However, like most of their other key appointments to date, Case’s background is not in keeping with this given that he was independently educated before studying History at Cambridge. Unlike most cabinet secretaries he has not served at either the Treasury or the Foreign Office, he also has no experience of leading a significant government delivery department as permanent secretary.

  • A Guide to the Government for BIA Members
    A guide to the Government for BIA members Correct as of 11 January 2018 On 8-9 January 2018, Prime Minister Theresa May conducted a ministerial reshuffle. This guide has been updated to reflect the changes. The Conservative government does not have a parliamentary majority of MPs but has a confidence and supply deal with the Northern Irish Democratic Unionist Party (DUP). The DUP will support the government in key votes, such as on the Queen's Speech and Budgets, as well as Brexit and security matters, which are likely to dominate most of the current Parliament. This gives the government a working majority of 13. This is a briefing for BIA members on the new Government and key ministerial appointments for our sector.

  • Office of the Advisory Committee On
    OFFICE OF THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON BUSINESS APPOINTMENTS Room G/8, 1 Horse Guards Road, London, SW1A 2HQ Telephone: 020 7271 0839 Email: [email protected] Website: http://www.gov.uk/acoba Alex Chisholm Permanent Secretary and Chief Operating Officer for the Civil Service By email 14 May 2021 Dear Mr Chisholm, Thank you for your reply to my letter of 13 April 2021. I found the response helpful, particularly your confirmation that civil servants must seek permission before accepting any outside employment which might affect their work either directly or indirectly as set out in the Civil Service Management Code; and applying the principles set out in government’s Business Appointment Rules. The Cabinet Secretary, in his letter to the Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee, also helpfully summarised the process around managing conflicts of interest and identified several areas of improvement. I support much of this work. However, the lack of transparency remains a significant concern here. Mr Crothers was advised that he could take up an outside role whilst he remained in office - in line with the process set out in your letter and by the Cabinet Secretary1. Yet, neither the appointment, nor the process for managing conflicts was transparent. This means there was no publicly available information to demonstrate: ● if potential conflicts were considered and if any action was taken to mitigate any potential risks to the integrity of government; nor ● why an application to ACOBA was not considered necessary. The critical question is whether the government will introduce the transparency necessary to provide assurance around this process: 1 And therefore in line with the Civil Service Management Code; and applying the principles set out in government’s Business Appointment Rules and the Civil Service Code.
