Commissioning
14-19 learner services toolkit
Sheffield Council (2007)
Sheffield set out to develop a model and operational framework
for commissioning provision for 14-19 year olds, so that young
people would benefit from an excellent offer, which would help them
achieve better outcomes. Sheffield also addressed what would be
needed to prepare for taking on responsibilities for commissioning
of post-16 provision. Its strategy and methodology is captured in a
guide and toolkit. Download

The
National Commissioning Framework
From April 2010, responsibility for securing enough suitable
education and training provision for all young people, including
those aged 16-19, young people up to age 25 where a learning
difficulty assessment is in place, and young offenders in youth
custody, will pass from the Learning and Skills Council (LSC) to
local authorities. The National Commissioning Framework (NCF) aims
to set out the core processes for the bodies involved to commission
for the education and training for 16-19 year olds, young people up
to age 25 where a learning difficulty assessment is in place, and
young offenders in youth custody. The draft NCF is now the subject
of an open consultation which runs until 17:00 on 5 February 2010.
After the consultation, the NCF will be reviewed and revised, and
will be published, subject to legislation, in April 2010 by the
Young People’s Learning Agency (YPLA) as part of their statutory
guidance. Download the
