Access Partnership Programme Clause Samples
The Access Partnership Programme clause establishes the terms under which parties may collaborate to provide or receive access to certain resources, services, or opportunities. Typically, this clause outlines eligibility criteria, the scope of access granted, and any obligations or limitations for participants in the programme. For example, it may specify which partners are entitled to use specific facilities or data, and under what conditions. The core function of this clause is to clearly define the framework for partnership access, ensuring all parties understand their rights and responsibilities, and to prevent misunderstandings regarding the extent and nature of access provided.
Access Partnership Programme. 5.10.1 We will work together to sustain those aspects of the Aimhigher project that we consider to have proved their efficacy in raising aspirations, attainment and progression by creating a new Access Partnership Programme.
5.10.2 We are convinced that this is necessary in view of the considerable challenge faced by higher education institutions in communicating the continued benefits of participation in higher education and the arrangements that will pertain from 2012 onwards, especially to learners in our target groups. We will therefore establish this Access Partnership Programme from September 2011, in advance of any increased funding from the new tuition fees.
5.10.3 Our Access Partnership Programme will focus on a number of clearly defined target groups. These are: - Learners from lower socio-economic groups, defined as NS-SEC 4-7; Learners from low participation neighbourhoods, as defined in POLAR2; Learners from black and minority ethnic groups that are under-represented in higher education; Learners with disabilities; and Learners from vulnerable groups such as young people leaving care.
5.10.4 Our Access Partnership Programme will operate within the University‟s main catchment area, broadly defined as described by; the radius from its main campuses within which the majority of its UK students are recruited; the geography of its UK partnerships and the borders of the South East Midlands Local Enterprise Partnership. We have divided this catchment into four areas. These are:
i. Nottingham, Grantham, Leicester, Peterborough, Northamptonshire
ii. Bedford and Milton Keynes;
iii. Central Bedfordshire, Aylesbury and South East Oxfordshire; and iv. Luton, North Hertfordshire and outer North London
5.10.5 We recognise that members of our target groups will also be located outside our main catchment areas and that further outreach activity beyond these immediate boundaries may also be required.
5.10.6 Our Access Partnership Programme will consist of a number of key elements, directed at members of the target groups, within the defined catchment. These activities, which have been selected on the basis of their proven efficacy, include an engagement framework for schools, a mentoring and progression programme, use of Partnership Officers and progression accords.
5.10.7 In addition to the above we propose to extend the Programme further by the initiation of a number of projects in areas such as progression from Apprenticeships and an Access Research programm...
Access Partnership Programme. We are enhancing our engagement framework to target schools, colleges and other agencies. This programme reaches out in particular to those schools, colleges and agencies which are associated with measures of deprivation such as income deprivation, educational deprivation, child poverty and low higher education participation and those agencies involved with supporting those leaving care or young carers.
