Highest average ECQ score in West Midlands
Clinical Education Centre
The Education Commissioning for Quality Framework (ECQ) is a Department of Health requirement for non-medical education quality assurance in relation to commissioned education providers. The process is undertaken with all Higher Education Providers on an annual basis. It is designed to ensure that the provision of healthcare education is reviewed, quality assured, performance managed, and is meeting the requirements of NHS Deaneries. In the West Midlands, the NHS West Midlands undertakes the process on behalf of the West Midlands health economy. In the 2010-11 process, Keele University (School of Nursing and Midwifery and School of Health and Rehabilitation), achieved an overall average score of 86% for programme quality (highest average score of all regional HEIs); and 100% achievement against previous reporting years' action plan (2009-10).
