Throughout your learning journey, our tutors will support your economic and social well-being and that of the local communities. We are committed to continuously invest in developing a diverse, skilled, talented, and productive workforce, and an environment where learners are proud and want to complete their education programmes.

We seek to ensure that our Information, advice and guidance (IAG) supports learners and colleagues in protecting themselves from harassment, bullying, and discrimination, including those colleagues who are based at other external sites. Through effective IAG, we work hard to prepare our learners for a successful life in modern Britain.

It is our intention that IAG is delivered in a way which is compliant with the Prevent duty and observant of effective Safeguarding practice, promoting:

“democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different backgrounds, faiths, and beliefs”. Ofsted

Our tutors will

Review the individual learner’s needs that are identified at the start of their course and provide appropriate resources and/or strategies to respond to those needs effectively.

Monitor the learner’s progress of achievement through assessment, planning, and review.
