This report published today  looks at the experience of those young people who broaden their learning and develop their essential skills by undertaking school-college partnership programmes. Its primary aim is to identify what makes these programmes successful for young people and what needs to be done better. It is intended to help schools, colleges and local authorities to build on key messages of success to further improve the learning experience for all. 

Section 7.4 deals with professional development and support issues for staff involved in this partnership working.
