In their response to the White Paper on Further Education earlier this week, several of the bodies responsible for different parts of the FE sector still had veiled criticisms of the bureaucratic systems in place and the burden that this places upon frontline education providers.

In a bid to meet this problem, the LSC have now announced their new national and regional structure, which has seen them cutting approximately a quarter of the jobs in the LSC.

LSC ‘Agenda for Change’ Speaking at the announcement in September 2005 of the agenda for change, the restructuring programme for the LSC, the Chief Executive Mark Haysom said: “We needed to transform ourselves into a smaller, more dynamic customer facing organisation better able to make decisions locally and regionally with better support at a national level.” Mr.

Haysom went on to express his p...
