 Government is carrying out a national programme of area-based reviews of post-16 education and training to address significant financial pressures and a declining 16-19 population. The planned outcome is fewer, often larger, more resilient and efficient providers. It is expected that this will lead to greater specialisation and centres of expertise that will better serve the needs of business and the economy.
The Sussex area review is underway, fully supported and informed by Coast to Capital, and a real sense of collaboration is apparent amongst the colleges. Consideration is being given to widening the spread of shared services, greater use of technology and identifying and addressing the skills gaps of the area.
The Surrey area review begins in March, and leter in the year Croydon will form a part of the South London area review.
If you would like further information or to make comment on the review please contact Kirsten.trussell@coast2capital.org.uk
