I am amused by some of the comments people are making about LEAs. I agree they
are difficult to work with sometimes, but we do share a common interest even in
we approach it from different directions. Perhaps we should consider talking
to them more, invite them to SKILL HE meetings - like the North West Group do,
go and visit them and find out more about their "criteria" - on doing this I
was surprised how isolated Awards Officers can be, and don't assume that they
are not members of disforum! Comments like "partial victory" only serve to
create a bigger gulf between us.
