images/downloads/education timeline 2011-15 print april.pptIn response to the considerable education reform occurring in the education sector currently, we at Shift Learning have put together a convenient, at-a-glance guide to what is happening in the changing educational sector and when.

This document was last updated on the 14^th March 2011 and covers educational reform in early years, primary education, secondary education, vocational education as well as changes to Higher Education. Information is provided on everything from the changes occurring as a result of the Schools White Paper to the Education Bill and, of course, the impending alterations to university tuition fees and university research funding.

This comprehensive guide to recent and forthcoming educational reform is available in two forms:

• as printable PPT slides that are editable for your own requirements - Download the Educational Timeline
• as fully animated power point slides that can be used for delivering presentations to your colleagues - Download the Animated Educational Timeline
