Our bi-weekly look at the world of functional skills.

Sneak preview of Guroo's BETT stand. the picture below is a sneak preview of our main stand backdrop for BETT, stand N48. Click on the picture to link to the latest Guroo Content Bulletin detailing all the updates, additions and changes to the Guroo service in the last few weeks.

The official line. There's been nothing from DCFS, no new videos on Teachers TV, the FSSP support section is "still under construction", even Teachernet's last update was 30th October. Still, it's good to know we can all have a few days without worrying we're missing something.

What do you know about Foundation Learning? Functional Skills is a key element of Foundation Learning at all levels. We noticed this diagram on the Excellence Gateway. We've linked it to some more key documents about Foundation Learning, some new, some old.
