8. Developing the Partnership Three areas that need further development and discussion within Lancaster & Morecambe are: Participation How do we increase participation for all young people? How will planning and funding cycles be aligned to ensure provision meets the needs of all learners. Curriculum How do we develop capacity to deliver a broad range of provision that meets the needs of all learners? What practical strategies do we need to adopt to support the full range of the 14-19 curriculum offer? Information, Advice and Guidance (IAG) How do we ensure that IAG remains relevant to all learners needs and remains impartial? How will the local Area Prospectus support learners? How do we ensure that the IAG Quality Standards are adhered to and measured?
