The University of Stirling is currently undertaking a review of its planning
cycle, with the aim of developping a system which will allow for fuller
integration of academic, financial and physical planning. The model which
is currently being considered would commence in the Spring of each year and
would be based upon knowledge of the actual funding allocations for the
following year from the Funding Council, along with projections for later
years. The Spring timing would also facilitate the use of actual student
FTE figures for the current year which, due to the fully modular degree
structure at Stirling, do not become available until March in each year.
I would be very interested in hearing from colleagues who have experience of
implementing a similar system.
