Phase 3 - The Competitiveness of HE in
Scotland , Published March 04
The remit of the 3rd Phase Scottish Higher
Education Review was to establish a robust basis of
evidence in relation to the competitiveness of higher
education in Scotland. By providing a far more extensive
shared evidence base than has been available previously,
the final report offers a common starting point for
Ministers and decision makers in considering the future
policy options available to them.
This commonly agreed evidence base
serves:
- as a robust analytical evidence base to better
understand the current baseline of the sector
- to understand fully the potential implications of
the DfES White Paper, and to inform responses in
Scotland to any new funding system implemented by DfES
in England
- to inform the 2004 spending review process
- to improve the quality of advice and information
available to all interested parties on the sector.

Summary
Phase 2 - A Framework for HE in
Scotland , Published March 03
The Scottish Executive published the second
phase of its review of higher education in Scotland on
Thursday, 20 March 2003.
The report brings together the conclusions
of an eighteen-month programme of consultation and dialogue
on the future of higher education in Scotland, and defines
the priorities and objectives for the next decade, focusing
on the key themes of teaching and learning, research and
knowledge transfer, and governance and management. One of
our key national priorities is the strong desire that our
higher education sector plays its full part within wider
lifelong learning in Scotland, thereby ensuring a growth in
opportunities for learners to progress seamlessly through
education, particularly through well-managed articulation,
from one level of course to another.
The report marks the conclusion of the
second phase of the Scottish higher education review, the
first phase of which consisted of the organisational review
of SHEFC published last August. The third phase will
access the competitiveness of Scottish higher education in
a UK and wider context and look at the work already
announced to look at the longer-term implications for
Scotland of funding changes proposed in England.
