New directions in 11-19 education
and skills: Foundation specialist schools - opportunities and issues Over the next 12 months the Campaign for Learning will be examining new directions in 11-19 education and skills policy. Future themes include the future of Connexions, the implications of the Foster review on 14-19 providers and increasing participation and achievement by 19. This first seminar attempts to assess the implications
of independent foundation specialist schools on 11-19 education and skills
policy including the work of Local Authorities, Local LSCs and Children's
Trusts. Debating the issues will be Cyril Taylor, chair, Specialist
Schools Trust, Dave Wilcox, chair, LGIU, Elaine Bowker, executive
director, Merseyside LSC and Kevin Crompton, chair, Association
of Directors of Education and Children's Services. Practitioners,
local and national policymakers, education and voluntary sector professionals
will have an opportunity to discuss the links between the government's
current and proposed policies and consider the issues for creating an
education and skills system responsive to all 11-19 year olds. For more details click here or contact Rebecca Goodbourn on 020 7766 0018 email: rgoodbourn@cflearning.org.uk
