Education


“Wales has been dogged for years by many institutions which are too small to cut a mark internationally, too small to withstand and respond to the growing pressure of international competition, and in danger of wasting resources competing with neighbours rather than looking out from Wales to win reputation and research income."
Rt Hon Leighton Andrews AM, Minister for Children, Education and Lifelong Learning


Across the UK the challenges of choice, participation and attainment must now be met by improved collaboration and partnering approaches to provision.

CPC understand these approaches and enable you to meet the challenges efficiently.

We do this with the aim of reducing surplus places and the cost of provision. The goal is to do 'More for Less'. We help build partnerships between Local Education Authorities, colleges, universities, the third sector and the private sector to ensure the skill demands of the economy are met, now and in the future.

There is increased pressure to create educational pathways that ensure choice and participation for all young people; that everyone can reach their full potential.

CPC is focused on achieving better learner outcomes, providing economic and regenerative benefits in a sustainable way. We deliver improvement from Strategic Outline Programme to implementation.

As trusted advisors to the Education sector, we work with Directors of Education, College Principals and other officers to support difficult decision-making and transformation to deliver better outcomes.
