answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/06/2019 answer text <p>Dame Shirley Pearce is currently conducting an independent review of the operation of the Teaching Excellence and Student Outcomes Framework (TEF), as required by section 26 of the Higher Education and Research Act 2017. She has spent several months collecting evidence through a “call for views” and an extensive series of listening sessions and we expect her to report in the summer. Alongside the review, the Office for Students (OfS) has been carrying out the second year of a pilot of subject-level TEF. This will conclude shortly and the OfS will publish its findings. We will await Dame Shirley’s recommendations, and take account of the evidence from the subject-level TEF pilot, before making a decision on the next phase of the TEF.</p> answering member constituency Kingswood answering member printed Chris Skidmore grouped question UIN 257652 question first answered 05/06/2019 12:49:49 answering member 4021 label Biography information for Chris Skidmore
