The dataset contains information on the 101 Learning Partnerships set up across England. It includes data on the structure and membership of the Learning Partnerships, their links with other bodies, key activities and funding. The network of 101 Learning Partnerships was established by the Secretary of State for Education in 1999. The aim was to provide a single strategic body in each area, to bring together all the existing local partnership arrangements covering post 16 education and lifelong learning. The aim of the the Partnerships is to develop more coherent learning provision to meet the needs of young people and adults and the skill requirements of employers. They support action to widen participation, increase attainment, raise standards, developing a framework for the new student support arrangements in further education, providing guidance on careers advice and development, and initiating work on basic skills.
