Respondent: Learning and Skills Council Sussex

LSC will broadly support the aims of the Local Plan and the refinements set out on pages 8 and 9 of the Issues and Options document, in particular those which address skills and economic development. LSC’s aims include improvement in basic skills and Level 2 achievements. We see learning and skills playing a prominent role in support of economic development and, specifically for employers, the Train to Gain service was launched earlier this year. LSC will continue to be involved in the 14 to 19 agenda and policies and in the regeneration of Hastings and Bexhill through existing mechanisms.
