In 2008 the Campaign for Learning was
commissioned by CfBT Education Trust to undertake this literature
review to explore learning to learn in FE, with a view to
identifying research already undertaken on effective practice in
England and elsewhere. Its purpose was to provide an up-to-date
review of literature exploring learning to learn in post-16
learning in England, with reference to relevant international
studies. It sought evidence of effective learning to learn practice
in the FE sector in England and elsewhere in the world, to identify
how practice might be improved in order to support successful
learning to learn approaches in future, and to identify the policy
implications for England.
