News – FE Guild

Key outcomes and proposals for the Guild are that:• It should focus on aspects associated with professionalism, including defining

workforce qualifications and standards, continuous professional development, research into teaching and learning, sharing best practice and leadership, management and governance.

• It also needs to play a key role in addressing such issues as improving the dual professionalism and currency of the workforce, by, for example, promoting links with businesses and communities.

• It should be based on having a relatively small executive team (circa 32 people) and rely, where appropriate and cost effective, on partnership, commissioning and other forms of cross sector work to fulfil its mission, whilst still retaining sufficient expertise to act as a genuine intelligent customer.

• It should be set up as a Company Limited by Guarantee and seek to register as a charity. To ensure real sector ownership, the company members should be the AoC, AELP (also covering third sector in conjunction with TSNLA) and, representing the Local Authority providers, the Association of Adult Education and Training Organisations, (who operate under the name of HOLEX), in consultation with LEAFEA.

News – FE GuildKey outcomes and proposals for the Guild are that:

• There should be very strong sector involvement in deciding the priorities and work of the Guild, via robust sector-wide, including practitioner, engagement and consultation processes.

• As a guiding principle, the Guild should aim to encompass everyone working in the sector providers, although resource constraints and other factors might result in there needing to be an initial focus on teaching and learning staff and those directly supporting learner outcomes.

• The decision as to whether there should also be some form of individual recognition route should be deferred until the Guild is fully operational and is better able to articulate the advantages and potential disadvantages of such a scheme.

• The Guild should adopt a phased approach to funding, initially based on a direct grant to ensure a successful setup and initial operation of the Guild, but progressively moving to a levy-based approach. Further self-funding opportunities could be considered for later years.

• Added note .. bye bye Excellence Gateway

Joint research 2 Idea from Sai Loo (Institute of Education) and Jim Crawley (Bath Spa University) Teacher Educators: Sources and Application of Knowledge and Identities - Suggested research questions:1. How do teacher educators (in the LLS) train teachers?2. What sources of knowledge do they draw from?3. How do they use the knowledge in the training of teachers?4. What continuous professional development activities are they

involved in?5. How do they view themselves professionally?A mixed method approach is to include questionnaire via technologies such as SurveyMonkey, interviews via technologies such as Skype. Included in the interviews will be a biographical element in which participants will be asked to describe their journeys as teacher educators alongside answering the research questions.
