QA4ODFL1/Policy/Enhance quality

The whole idea of discussing policy in this course is to emphasise that a sound policy environment creates a conducive climate for rolling out quality ODFL. There is a sense in which educational policy can be viewed as an integral aspect of the quality of provision. It defines critical educational inputs, key processes of the system and expected outcomes to be achieved. As highlighted earlier in this course, ODFL policy covers essential aspects of provision which have a direct impact on quality of provision. As a reminder, these key aspects include who offers ODFL, how it is funded, recognition and alignment with traditional face-to-face (Issues of parity), student assessment, and quality assurance.
