<p>Every prisoner is subject to rigorous assessment on reception which informs a Personal
Learning Plan. This plan is linked to prisoners' sentence plans and helps ensure provision
is suitable to address needs. Prison Governors will then be held to account for the
progress of each prisoners' in their establishment against that Personal Learning
Plan as they progress through their sentence including transition to support through
the gate and on release.</p><p> </p><p>Responsibility for education provision in prisons
is held by Governors. They control the budget, decide the curriculum, and have helped
to choose the main providers. In addition, our prison education Dynamic Purchasing
System allows governors to commission specific, short-term education provision to
meet specialised learning needs. Governors will also need to be aware of the development
needs of their population and commission suitable provision that is linked to local
employment needs. This will help prisoners to take full advantage of employment opportunities
on release.</p>
