The Diplomas
Objective
To demonstrate how Virtual Technology can provide solutions to the delivery of the new Diploma’s being Introduced between now and 2013.
The Diplomas
2008 – First five have started
To-date 12,000 students (60%) out of possible 20,000 take up the options.
2013 – Total of 17 diplomas
Take-up estimates range from 40% to 80%
Still many unresolved concerns
Concerns
How Many Pupils?
Where will they learn?
Transport?
Timetabling?
Record Keeping? (Attendance, levels of attainment etc.)
Access to their work?
Accommodation?
Teacher training?
Business partners?
Making available any Diplomas to any pupil?
Characteristics
tends to have high capital cost
suited to urban areas with good transport links
requires formal agreement over ownership/management
gives partnership physical reality - increases buy-in?
Variant 1: Single Vocational Hub
Characteristics
Suited to more dispersed population, or larger number of partners, with good transport links
Requires formal agreement over ownership/management
Gives partnership a physical reality - increases buy-in?
Variant 2: Dispersed Vocational Centres, Linked to Schools
Characteristics
Low capital cost
Suited to urban areas or dispersed populations with good transport links
Allows for flexible partnership arrangements, but less buy-in?
Movement of teachers and learners
Variant 3: Informal Collaboration
Characteristics
Extensive use of ICT, videoconferencing, distance and e-learning
Medium to high capital cost
Suited to rural/dispersed populations with poor transport links
Allows for more flexible partnership arrangements
E-learning (ILS)
No movement of teachers or learners
Variant 4: School and College Virtual Groups
