What The College Tried to Hide - Technical Blog

This is a technical blog for those who understand College funding. I am going to need some help from Skidder readers here as I am not sure what it is in the following minutes of the sleazy "Sadwell" College's Board of Governors which they were so anxious to keep secret. If I am missing something significant, please let me know!

Perhaps I should also say that the College only produced these minutes via the Freedom of Information Act after I had been forced to go through the request and internal review stages and then appealed to the Office of the Information Commissioner. Recently these tosspots were then moaning about the cost of replying to FOI requests. There is a simple answer - just comply with the Act in the first place and stop trying to keep stuff secret for fallacious reasons!

What follows relates to another so-called "partnership" with the basket-case Labour Council which, of course, forced the College to take the person purporting to be SMBC's "Chief Executive", Jan Britton, onto its Board as part of the bent Public deal. You will see from the second minute set out below that even though Britton was riding two horses (and this was nothing to do with his size) the College Board discounted any conflict of interest in letting him take part in discussions on a contract involving a party he runs [sic]. There's "arm's-length negotiation" for you!

It seems there is some scam afoot to try and screw some more money out of the Skills Funding Agency which is now the remit of Tory Business Secretary, Sajid Javid. Happily, his top cop brother, Basit, is also on the College's Board........

First minute - "special meeting" of 16th April, 2015:






And here is the follow up at the meeting on 11th May, 2015:
