National Comparators for Further Education and Work Based Learning, 2006/07 The key points from the latest release are: • Overall success rates were 60% in FE and 65% in WBL. • Just under 50% of learners leaving Modern Apprenticeship (MA) and Foundation Modern Apprenticeship (FMA) programmes in 2006/07 achieved their full apprenticeship framework. FMA success rates were consistently higher than those for MAs, with the majority of subject areas exceeding the current Welsh Assembly Government contractual requirement of 50% framework success. • There was considerable variation in outcomes across subject areas. In FE learning activity success rates varied from 38% to 76%, while in WBL analysis of the key measure of framework success shows outcomes as low as 26% and as high as 62%. http://new.wales.gov.uk/statsdocs/post16ed/sdr106-2008.pdf?lang=en
Comparators
• Data underpinning the 2006/2007 performance measures will be included in WAG, DCELLS online benchmarking tool • www.tribalbenchmarking.co.uk/wales/defa ult.aspx
Benchmarking
The key benefits that underpin the benchmarking project include: • The provision of a web based self assessment tool that facilitates diagnostic analysis and supports decision-making for providers. • A tool which enables providers to learn from best practice to enhance their own processes and drive improvements in quality and value for money thereby contributing to a culture of self-improvement amongst providers. • A tool which enables providers to make comparisons both within and outside of Wales establishing an understanding of the relationship between cost and quality in each sector. • The opportunity to enhance the culture of collaboration between colleges, schools and work based learning providers. This will strengthen the learning network, build capacity and optimise internal resource allocation.

UK
National Occupational Standards in Delivery, building on the work which led to the production of the Professional Standards for Tutors, teachers & Trainers in Wales.
