JISC Advance announced today that Sixth Form Colleges will continue to benefit from JISC services - including JISC Legal - for the 2012/13 and 2013/14 financial years.
The funding, confirmed by BIS (the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills) yesterday, will apply to Sixth Form Colleges in England. It will include cover for all JISC Advance services including Regional Support Centres and Advisory Services as well as JANET and other JISC services.
The announcement follows discussions between BIS and the Department for Education (DfE) who now has responsibility for Sixth Form Colleges.
In common with other JISC services, JISC Legal welcomes the news which reflects that our services are recognised by both departments as representing good value to the sector.
