Update on Machinery of Government changes and progress of 14-19 Reforms
Purpose of report: City of York LA has agreed to work in a sub regional cluster with North Yorkshire, East Riding and Hull to commission post 16 education from April 2010 in line with the Machinery of Government changes first announced in July 2007.
By the end of February 2009 the four local authorities must make a Stage 2 Submission to DCSF so that the department can assess the readiness of the cluster to take forward the commissioning role and allow funding for post 16 education funding to be channelled through them.
The paper will explain
the stage 2 submission and cluster arrangements, which will include
an annual calendar of cluster based activity and information on key
decision points. It will also update members on progress through
the current “tracking year” of the transition from LSC
to LA commissioning and towards the development of expanded 14-19
structures within LCCS.A pattern of regular reports on the progress
of the linked 14-19 Curriculum Reforms has been established and the
report will cover relevant developments since October 2008.
Members are asked to: Endorse the Stage 2 MOG submission and
arrangements for sub regional working, and note the progress on
this agenda and the linked 14-19 Curriculum reforms
