Project overview
The Nuffield Foundation funded a six-year independent review of 14-19 education and training from October 2003 to September 2009. It was shaped throughout by the answers to the question: What counts as an educated 19 year old in this day and age?
In its final report, the Review made five over-arching demands:
- The re-assertion of a broader vision of education.
- System performance indicators ‘fit for purpose’.
- The re-distribution of power and decision-making.
- The creation of strongly collaborative local learning systems.
- The development of a more unified system of qualifications.
The Directorate were supported with contributions from:
- Schools and local education authorities associated with the Institute’s London Region Post-14 Network
- The ESRC Research Centre on Skills, Knowledge and Organisational Performance (SKOPE)
- Research and development team of the Learning and Skills Network (LSN)
- National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER)
