This is the first time such a comprehensive set of data has been available together. The reports provide a data set about the entire workforce, allowing organisations and employees to see how they compare to others in terms of gender balance, pay, percentage of qualified staff and areas which are hardest to recruit.
An average FE college employs 642 people, of whom 307 are teachers. In FE Colleges the median salary band for a full-time teacher is £29,000 – 29,999 per annum. The highest paying region is Greater London and the South East and North East pay the lowest.
We collected the workforce data in different ways to capture data from all types of employer within the sector. The data was collected on an individualised basis from FE Colleges through the Staff Individualised Record (SIR). Private training providers and adult and community learning providers responded to surveys from the Foundation in conjunction with AELP and HOLEX respectively. Data on qualifications, hard to fill vacancies, and other queries about the workforce beyond demographic information, were collected through a range of surveys.
