VfM
 
Value for Money: The technical term used to describe the analysis of whether investing in a proposal will produce the outcomes sought at an 'acceptable' cost. It does not mean choosing the cheapest option.
VLE
 
Virtual Learning Environment: similar to a MLE (see also).
Voluntary Aided
 

Voluntary Aided schools are owned by a variety of trusts, many of which are linked to a particular faith. The VA sector is actively involved in every part of BSF. VA schools will be represented on the Strategic Partnering Board which will be set up to ensure that key stakeholders are consulted over the operation of the LEP in their area.
