| Administrative / biographical background: |
The Information Standards Board (ISB) for education, skills and children’s services in England is the system-wide authority for all information and data standards. The ISB met for the first time as a working group in April 2006, following an announcement by the Secretary of State in January 2006 of the intention to set up a board to provide governance around standards. It would cover standards for both 'data' (information about learners and others) and for e-learning, though it might build its remit in stages. It would set priorities, coordinate work around the system, and provide quality assurance, formal approval and change control. The ISB works across the sectors covered by the Department for Education (DfE) and the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS). The ISB is hosted by the DfE but is part of a wider information governance structure and reports, and the ISB and its chairman are accountable to senior officials and ministers within the DfE and BIS. |
