Aimhigher Programme

Volume 481: debated on Wednesday 29 October 2008

To ask the Secretary of State for Innovation, Universities and Skills how many staff are employed full-time on the Aimhigher programme. (227427)

Information on the number of people who are employed by Aimhigher partnerships is not held centrally. Regions and areas have also taken different approaches to the employment of staff. In some areas, there are full-time dedicated Aimhigher co-ordinators, while in others Aimhigher is part of a larger job role. A number of staff in HE institutions, schools and colleges are also involved in the programme for part of their time, including those teachers and lecturers who deliver summer schools, masterclasses and other activities.
