摘要自1944年《教育法》通过以来,继续教育学院的治理经历了两个主要阶段:一是继续教育学院受地方政府控制的时期,二是从1993年4月1日“授予日”开始的时期,当时学院成为法人,继续教育公司作为慈善机构成立。这篇评论主要关注的是自1993年4月1日以来的大学治理的景观,并借鉴了一些非常有限的研究报告到继续教育治理的实践。主要的治理球员的经验和贡献-公司主席,州长,校长,高级职员,职员的公司-进行了讨论。自1993年以来,大学治理一直在政府提供的政策框架内运作,并在或多或少的程度上由政府机构实施这些政策。简单地说,这种模式似乎是创造力(在早期),合规性(在一些高调的大学治理崩溃之后),微观管理(通过学习和技能理事会年),现在是最开放,最有想象力的阶段,因为现任政府鼓励强大的大学在当地教育提供中发挥更大的作用。也许现在是时候了,到目前为止,大学治理的经验能够借鉴其相当大的优势,并显示治理资本的积累可以实现什么。
Abstract The governance of further education colleges has two main phases since the passing of the Education Act 1944 – the period when further education colleges were under local authority control and the period from ‘vesting day’ on 1 April 1993 when colleges became incorporated and further education corporations were formed as charities. This review is primarily concerned with the landscape of college governance since 1 April 1993 and draws upon some of the very limited number of research studies into the practice of further education governance. The experience and contribution of the key governance players – chair of the corporation, governors, the principal, the senior staff, the clerk to the corporation – are discussed. Throughout the period since 1993, college governance has operated within a policy framework provided by government and, to a greater or lesser extent, the implementation of those policies by agencies of government. In simple terms, the pattern may seem to be creativity (in the early years), compliance (following some high profile college governance collapses), micro-management (through the Learning and Skills Council years) and now the most open, imaginative phase as the current government encourages the strong colleges to play a bigger part in local education provision. Perhaps now is the time when the experience of college governance to date is able to draw upon its considerable strengths and show what the accumulation of governance capital can achieve.
