I think it's fine to set targets, they can figure out the rest later!

I lean towards option D because it emphasizes focusing on outcomes rather than just inputs. The Strategic Case should clarify what needs to be achieved, right?

I feel like option C could be valid since the Consortium's role is to transform education, but I'm not convinced they should set targets without a clear plan.

I remember a similar question about setting objectives without clear outcomes. I think option A makes sense because we can't just aim for a target without knowing how to get there.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think the Consortium needs to outline specific strategies to achieve that 15% increase. Without a plan, how can we measure success?

I'm pretty confident that option D is the right answer here. The Strategic Case should focus on the outcomes and outputs, not the details of the potential solution. The Consortium doesn't need to have a full plan in place to set a reasonable target.

I think the Consortium's approach is appropriate. The Strategic Case should be about defining the goals, not necessarily the specific plan to get there. As long as the 15% target is realistic and justified, that seems like a valid approach to me.

This is a tricky one. On the one hand, the Consortium should probably have a proposed solution to reach the 15% target. But on the other hand, the Strategic Case is meant to focus on the outcomes, not the inputs. I'm not sure which way to go on this.

I'm a bit confused by this question. It seems like the Consortium is setting a target without a clear plan to achieve it. I'm not sure if that's appropriate for the Strategic Outline Case.

I think the Strategic Case should focus on the outcomes, not the potential solutions. If they can identify the right targets, the details can come later.

Hold on, the Consortium is responsible for transforming education and learning. Shouldn't they be the ones setting the targets, even if they don't have all the solutions yet?

Well, if the Consortium can't even propose ways to increase the success rates, how are they supposed to define the spending objectives? This is just setting everyone up for failure.
