Name B 4.6-4 The Quality Enhancement Framework in Scotland: some reflections on the Scottish revolution
Description Author: Norman Sharp
This article draws on the experience of being one of the principal developers of the Quality En-hancement Framework in Scotland. It highlights the importance of establishing an approach to quality management in higher education based on very firm, explicit and shared guiding principles. It emphasises in particular the essential role of building constructive partnerships with all the key players. In particular, the importance of students as key partners in managing learning is stressed. The article emphasises the power of a model based on the driving force of enhancing the future student experience rather than ticking the box of past performance. The model suggests that even in the very best institutions, there is always room for improvement. Finally, the article emphasises the importance of long-term development and the dangers of short-termism – but always informed by and improved through transparent internal and external evaluation.
