Welcome to the Information Standards Board web site

The Information Standards Board (ISB) for education, skills and children’s services (escs) will be the overarching authority and governing body for the management and assurance of information and data standards across the escs system.

Approved ISB information standards will ensure that information is stored in common, consistent formats which will aid front line delivery, reduce bureaucracy and enable a more joined up service.

Special Feature

The information authority

The information authority sets and regulates data standards for further education (FE) and training providers in England. Working alongside the Data Service, they are reviewing data requests with a view to improving the quality of data collected and reducing the time that learning providers spend on administration. The ISB is committed to working effectively and efficiently with them through a Memorandum of Understanding.
