This document represents a statement of the strategic approach taken by MOVE Lifelong Learning
Network in addressing its key mission to bring about a step change in progression within the East
of England region. It focuses on the development and implementation of progression accords
as the means to instigate and sustain cultural change in the institutional practices that surround
progression to higher education in the region and in the broader higher education sector.
Much of the approach and the details of the MOVE progression accord model described here is
taken from an earlier text entitled ‘An introduction to the theory and practice of MOVE progression
accords’ (Betts and Bravenboer: 2008) which was published in Seminar report on progression
agreements and accords (HEFCE: May 2008)
