These Raising Standards Guides intend to provide practical help to practitioners and managers to improve quality and standards in Skills and Skills for Life provision
Each contextual guide is designed to bridge the gap between understanding generic advice on improving quality, and taking appropriate and effective action in a specific learning context, be that a general further education college, a prison, the workplace or in one of the various settings found in adult and community learning.
The guides, produced by the Skills for Life Strategy Unit, illustrate a process, or movement, from the Common Inspection Framework, through specific, proven actions for improvement, to the recognition of success in self assessment and inspection grades.
