HE in FE

 

PALATINE has developed in increasing interest in, and support for, the learning and teaching of higher education performing arts subjects in further education colleges.

The work of Jo Richler, our Adviser for HE in FE, has extended and developed our links with those colleagues and institutions delivering and managing HE in FE. Amongst a number of activities, Jo has created and collected a number of reports and documents relating to HE in FE including a database of all HE dance, drama and music related courses in the FE sector including HNCs, HNDs, and Foundation Degrees (see below),

PALATINE is also keen to establish a PALATINE contact in every college delivering HE performing arts subjects, and to encourage colleagues working in HE in FE to join our e-mail lists so that they can receive information from us.

Higher Education Learning Partnerships

"The Centres for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) initiative has two main aims: to reward excellent teaching practice, and to further invest in that practice so that CETLs funding delivers substantial benefits to students, teachers and institutions. The HELP CETL is one of four CETLs awarded to the University of Plymouth.

The HELP CETL aims to become the national exemplar of excellence in locally-based Higher Education in Further Education [HE in FE]. CETL funding will enable HELP to build on the excellent track record of the University of Plymouth [along with its regional Further Education College partners] in developing successful HE in FE partnerships and significantly widening participation while simultaneously maintaining high retention levels.

We will further strengthen our partnership, enhance the students' experience, support a major expansion of provision and spread excellence both across our network and more widely through collaboration with other HE in FE consortia." (Overview)
