- Provide all apprentices with timely, developmental feedback that enables them to understand their strengths, how to improve and consequently helps them to make excellent progress.
- Further support learners in receipt of high needs funding to take more ownership of their learning and consequently achieve greater independence in their wider lives.
- Ensure all eligible learners take part in an external work placement to extend and consolidate their understanding of workplace practices.
- Further develop the programme of cross college enrichment activities so that learners have better opportunities to explore their interests and talents.
