Action: DfE further education provider dashboard pilot
The further education (FE) provider dashboard pilot is now live in ‘Private Beta’ (non-public).
The dashboard is a new tool bringing published performance data on learner outcomes for colleges and large local authority FE providers (in receipt of £1 million or more annually directly from the Department for Education (DfE) or via devolved funding into one place), to identify effective practice and support continuous improvement.
To access the FE provider dashboard, log on to view your education data and select the ‘achievement and performance’ option.
We would like all colleges and large local authority FE providers, to start using the dashboard until the end of the academic year, and as preparation for annual strategic conversations. Complete the feedback form which can be found on each page of the dashboard.
