Post-school education, research and skills - interim purpose and principles: discussion guide

A discussion guide to support feedback on the framework for building an excellent post-school education, research and skills ecosystem for Scotland.


Using This Discussion Guide

  • This discussion guide sets out the five principles and purpose for post school education, research and skills.
  • Through early engagement on the development of the purpose and principles, it became clear that to understand how the principles would operate and support delivery in the ecosystem, a number of policy and practice options would have to be considered.
  • The guide takes the principles in turn, asking questions on language and the policy and practice options that have been raised so far.
  • We would welcome your feedback on these options, adding information on any others you think need to be considered or explored, and where you think there is best practice or opportunities for improvement, please identify these in your feedback.
