Sector Conference deplores the priorities of the 157 Group as publicly declared by its Chair, Ioan Morgan.
The 157 Group seeks to 'embrace' the Government in a rampaging privatisation of English FE, completing its shameful metamorphosis into 300 (or likely far fewer) dark, satanic, low-rent, pared-down, vocational-qualification mills. Mr. Morgan also seeks to 'remedy' the 'heavy public sector contracts on their staff' and seek greater 'flexibility' from them. No doubt there is also a strong desire to achieve 'heavy' private sector senior management remuneration packages. Conference calls on Mr. Morgan and the 157 Group instead to take a principled lead in
fighting the never-ending succession of funding cuts
and preserving and expanding a true community-based FE service.
