Scrutiny Committee chairwoman Jean Pritchard.
QUESTIONS have been raised by Scrutiny Committee chairwoman Jean Pritchard about the Education review.
Deputy Pritchard, who threatened a requete to instigate a detailed review into the department’s management, said she could not believe that the 10-page report by Dr Trevor Robinson, of IBS Consultants, had cost between £40,000 and £50,000.
‘Did that really cost us almost £50,000? Is this actually the full report?’ She said it revealed that Education was being mismanaged, but gave no recommendations as to how to fix things.

My immediate view of reading the Robinson report on education, is that it is a typical consultancy document of the type I used to see, and write, where the consultant writes enough to create a positive “nodding technique” response that will allow the report to be the basis of further, and more remunerative work, on the procedures, policies etc.
The perceptive consultant who wrote the generally passive and not personally frightening report, would then be well positioned to quote for and most importantly, decide what work is needed.
