		Best practice at heart of new dawn for MLA 04 June 2008 Nine months on from the arrival of chief executive Roy Clare, June 3rd marks a key stage towards the transformation into a restructured and refocused single agency for museums, libraries and archives. The MLA yesturday set out the details of its significantly re-defined role, and new ways of working nationally and regionally. The move follows extensive engagement with key players across government and with cultural and other bodies. This has enabled the MLA to confidently set out clear goals that have won broad support. As a result the MLA has articulated a clear role as the agency responsible for promoting best practice and inspiring innovative, integrated and sustainable museum, library and archive services for all. The changes set out include: A unified national organisation shaped to engage effectively with local government in the nine English regions; a slimmed down staff structure designed to nurture expertise and joined-up working; the relocation of the majority of its functions away from London; reductions in operating costs, so that more resources are available to support front line improvement; prioritisation on key projects that will deliver the most impact; and unavoidable staff redundancies after thorough consultation and agreement.

		Opportunities for Initial Teacher Training (ITT) trainees 06 May 2008 MLA North West and Liverpool John Moores University are setting up an opportunity for Initial Teacher Training (ITT) trainees to work together with museums and archives in and around the Merseyside area. This project is funded through the MLA North West Strategic Commissioning programme. The project aims to: - create placements for trainees in our sector's venues - create learning resources to be piloted by trainees with school children - highlight to training teachers the value of using museum and archive resources within the curriculum - encourage trainees to share their experiences and continue to use these resources in their future career.
