What does the provider need to do to improve further?
- Improve the quality of teaching, learning and assessment by:
- developing teachers’ skills in assessing learners’ understanding in lessons
- developing teachers’ skills in allowing learners time to reflect and think deeply about the topics that they are studying
- ensuring that learners and apprentices receive sufficient challenge to make the progress of which they are capable
- ensuring that actions to improve the quality of teaching, learning and assessment on English and mathematics courses are effective.
- Reduce the number of apprentices making slow progress by:
- monitoring the progress that apprentices make and ensuring that staff provide support for apprentices to catch up if they fall behind
- reducing the number of apprentices who take a break in their learning
- ensuring that apprentices attend classes in English and mathematics where necessary.
- Improve the achievement of learners on study programmes by:
- continuing to monitor their progress and ensuring that teachers intervene swiftly when learners fall behind or do not make the progress of which they are capable
- improving the quality of feedback that learners receive so that they are clear about what they need to do to improve the quality of their work.
- Improve the attendance of learners where it is not regular enough.
What does the provider need to do to improve further?
- Identify dips in performance as soon as they arise and put effective strategies in place to address them before they cause a decline in learner and apprenticeship progress and achievement.
- Further develop the strategy for improving English and mathematics for learners on the 16 to 19 study programme, making sure staff use it well in all areas, monitor learner progress effectively and put prompt interventions in place where needed.
- Improve teaching, learning and assessment further by:
- ensuring teachers’ planning of lessons takes account of all the different abilities of learners and apprentices within the group
- providing the most-able learners and apprentices with tasks and activities which are at the right level and which challenge them to achieve their best.
