The report, ‘Strengthening governance arrangements in the English post-16 skills system’, provides a blueprint for what a new national skills body to oversee a post-16 education and skills strategy should look like and how it could operate in practice, focusing on tackling the deep-rooted challenges facing the country. Building on AoC’s work, Commission for the College of the Future in 2020, Opportunity England in 2023, and 100% Opportunity: the case for a tertiary education system in 2024, the independent report is based on robust evidence, guided by interviews from right across the further education sector and beyond, and draws on international examples of successful skills systems.
