Red Ken Saves the Day

EducationState welcomes the £15 million hand-out awarded to FE Colleges in London.

This will allow SMT’s to sweeten the pill that is redundancy and postpone the inevitable for another year. Such money, of course, does not come without strings and it was interesting to note the 1/3 of the cash was stumped up by the London Development Agency whose luminaries include many business leaders who “will require more delivery focussed on supporting people into work and more delivery in the workplace.” Looks like the marriage between ESOL and business is here to stay.
