Equality Mainstreaming Supports for the Further Education and Training Sector EMU Funded FESS project in co-operation with CMETB and KWETB 1

Further Education is a critical hinge and interface between different elements of the education system, and a critical bearer of very important social values. FE is a transition point between schools, Higher Education and work. It is fundamentally about social inclusion, a place for.... a second chance, FE can be seen as a fulcrum for equality.

FETAC Quality Assurance in Further Education and Training Policy and Guidelines v1.3 state that; Programmes of education and training and related services should be delivered in a manner that accommodates diversity, combats discrimination and promotes equality of opportunity. Delivery agencies should have an institutional capacity and commitment to combat discrimination, to accommodate and make adjustments for diversity. This capacity needs to be planned and systematic rather than ad hoc, informal or reactive. ©2014, Further Education Support Service 3

Objectives of the project To embed equality mainstreaming into the delivery (including the assessment) of the programmes developed through the ETBI / CEEOA National Shared Programme Development Initiative To ensure the consideration of the 9 grounds when delivering the programmes and assessing the learner To develop a suite of templates to facilitate providers / tutors to equality proof the delivery and assessment of the programme descriptors (part A) and the associated programme modules. ©2014, Further Education Support Service4
