14-19 Forum on Work Based Learning |
|
Under the ‘Machinery of Government’ changes announced earlier in the year the LSC’s responsibility for 16 to 18 learning and skills will transfer to local authorities who will be responsible for producing their commissioning requirements for post 16 work based learning under the local 14-19 strategic plans. The WYLP Board agreed that it is important that we have good dialogue with the local authorities so we are able to influence the development of 14-19 strategic plans. WYLP organised a discussion forum to debate this agenda and to agree a way forward regarding the current activities on 14-19 local strategic plans and the extent of planning for post 16 work based learning within these local authority plans for the future. From the forum discussions it was agreed that WYLP should write to the Directors of Children and Young People Services in each of the Local Authorities to ensure WYLP/WBL was represented at the development of these plans.
