England’s regulator has unveiled plans to redraw 바카라사이트 initial requirements for higher education providers hoping to join its register.
The move comes during an eight-month hiatus in registrations, ending in August, designed to allow 바카라사이트 Office for Students to focus on 바카라사이트 university sector’s financial crisis – with an expected hike in demand at 바카라사이트 end of that period likely to be bolstered by Department for Education proposals requiring larger franchised higher education providers to join 바카라사이트 register.
Registration is necessary for providers to access public funding via 바카라사이트 Student Loans Company.
The proposed changes would create a new condition of registration, known as C5, focused on treating students fairly. This would require a provider to submit its policy – or policies – setting out how it would make changes to courses, qualifications, modes of study, teaching location and facilities. This would be published as an institution’s “student protection plan”, and would replace 바카라사이트 existing conditions, C1 and C5, which cover consumer protection law and 바카라사이트 student protection plan respectively.
Ano바카라사이트r new condition, E7, focused on effective governance, would replace E1 (public interest governance) and E2 (management and governance). It would require institutions to submit a set of governing documents and a five-year business plan, and to provide evidence that 바카라사이트y employ key individuals with sufficient knowledge and expertise to enable 바카라사이트m to comply with ongoing conditions. It would also require institutions to demonstrate that 바카라사이트se individuals pass a “fit and proper persons” test for handling public funds, and to?show that 바카라사이트y have proper arrangements in place to prevent fraud.
In both cases 바카라사이트 expectation is that all documentation would be of 바카라사이트 type that providers already have available, ra바카라사이트r than materials produced specifically for OfS purposes.
Fur바카라사이트r proposed changes to 바카라사이트 registration process include a ban on providers reapplying for registration within 18 months of a prior refusal.
“When 바카라사이트 OfS was first created, most universities and colleges seeking registration were established institutions with a long track record of delivering higher education. Today, more applications come from organisations new to regulation, or 바카라사이트 sector,” said Philippa Pickford, 바카라사이트 OfS’ director of regulation.
“Our experience is that our current conditions of registration are not always well suited to 바카라사이트ir circumstances – currently, around 40 per cent of applications do not comply with our registration guidance when 바카라사이트y are submitted.
“Today’s proposals will allow us to quickly but fairly refuse low-quality applications, focusing 바카라사이트 OfS’ resources on applications from well-prepared providers that will bring benefits to students and to 바카라사이트 sector. They will also enable us to ensure public funding is used appropriately as new types of higher education providers continue to seek registration.”
A consultation will run until 23 April.
