柠檬导航 policy hub
As the key voice of practitioners in post-16 education, 柠檬导航 seeks to influence education policy across a range of issues. These include structures in the sector, funding, quality, the curriculum, professional development, learner support and governance.
The union is represented on a number of educational bodies and makes regular representations to the government departments and sector government agencies and non-departmental government bodies. 柠檬导航 offers advice to members on a range of professional issues. It campaigns for proper funding for the sector, a comprehensive curriculum offer for young people and adults and adequate training and professional development for sector staff and 柠檬导航 members.
