    Norton Radstock College REPORT FROM THE INSPECTORATE 1998-99 THE FURTHER EDUCATION FUNDING COUNCIL THE FURTHER EDUCATION FUNDING COUNCIL The Further Education Funding Council (FEFC) has a legal duty to make sure further education in England is properly assessed. The FEFC’s inspectorate inspects and reports on each college of further education according to a four-year cycle. It also inspects other further education provision funded by the FEFC. In fulfilling its work programme, the inspectorate assesses and reports nationally on the curriculum, disseminates good practice and advises the FEFC’s quality assessment committee. College inspections are carried out in accordance with the framework and guidelines described in Council Circulars 97/12, 97/13 and 97/22. Inspections seek to validate the data and judgements provided by colleges in self-assessment reports. They involve full-time inspectors and registered part-time inspectors who have knowledge of, and experience in, the work they inspect. A member of the Council’s audit service works with inspectors in assessing aspects of governance and management. All colleges are invited to nominate a senior member of their staff to participate in the inspection as a team member.

As you are aware, in light of the inadequate grading following the Ofsted inspection of Norton Radstock College in May 2014, the FE Commissioner reviewed the position of your College in line with the intervention policy set out in Rigour and Responsiveness in Skills (April 2013). The FE Commissioner completed his assessment on 11 July 2014. I have now considered the FE Commissioner's assessment, which includes a set of recommendations. I have accepted all these recommendations. A summary of the assessment and the recommendations is provided with this letter. The Assessment As you will see, the assessment identified some weaknesses in the governance of the College, and significant weaknesses in the leadership. Changes, particularly within the leadership, should be made as a matter of priority. Strong governance and leadership is vital to a college's success. Governors are responsible for the strategic oversight of the college, and in holding the Principal and executive to account for delivery. It is essential that the governing body and the executive at Norton Radstock College has the skills and experiences necessary to fulfil these responsibilities and to drive up standards through quality improvement.
