There is now, more than ever before, clear recognition amongst policy makers that development of technical and professional skills must sit at the heart of the UK’s industrial strategy. Our future economic and social prosperity rely on more people having higher level technical skills and education; this will help to improve productivity and ensure that British industry remains competitive, as well as providing opportunities for people to realise their talents and ambitions and lead fulfilling and prosperous lives. This Strategic Plan takes into account key national policy developments as well as local and regional economic development agendas. It draws on thinking about all areas of our work and positions the Bishop Auckland College Group at the heart of local infrastructure, driving participation, economic prosperity and aspiration. It reflects the challenges we face and the many opportunities open to us; most of all, it provides a clear focus and direction for our future. Principal and Chief Executive 3 Vision: Shaping the future The Bishop Auckland College Group will continue to grow by responding to local needs with specialist provision that builds prosperity and supports local economic regeneration, delivering excellence and efficiency in everything we do. Mission: The passion that drives us Enjoy, learn, achieve, progress: Developing advanced skills for a bright future. Group: The growing Bishop Auckland College Bishop Auckland College originated in 1958 and has a long and proud history as a very successful former technical college serving the mining, engineering and manufacturing industries. The College has evolved and diversified with the changing times in order to respond to areas of specific need with highly specialist provision. Hence, the Bishop Auckland College Group is made up of a number of organisations and activities, at varying stages of development. These are all connected by a shared mission, ethos and set of core values, and offer students exceptional opportunities for progression and employment. The Group comprises: ► Bishop Auckland College: a general FE college, established originally as a technical college in 1958. ►South West Durham Training: a specialist engineering and manufacturing training provider located within the Aycliffe Business Park. ► Durham Gateway: specialist alternative provision for 14-16 year olds, offering a combined academic and vocational curriculum for young people who are not thriving in mainstream education. ► Bishop Auckland College Nursery: on-site nursery and pre-school providing up to 67 full-time places, serving external commercial clients as well as the children of College students and staff. ► Auckland Academy: a joint venture initiative with The Auckland Project, providing apprenticeship and other training provision to support the economic regeneration of Bishop Auckland. 4 Culture and Values Bishop Auckland College is a great place to study or work and our culture is quite distinctive. The College staff are an exceptionally tight-knit community of people who are absolutely dedicated to our students, our College and our local communities. Most of our staff and students originate from the local area and understand our context – the challenges and the enormous opportunities – very well. We know that positive and productive relationships are the key to success and our staff are dedicated to really getting to know our students, providing the right support when needed, in order to unlock the potential within each and every young person or adult learner. This is an environment where all students, staff and visitors feel safe, respected and valued, and we thrive on the richness of ideas that diversity brings. We are proud of our unique internal culture, but Bishop Auckland College is an outward-facing organisation that recognises the critical importance of collaboration in order to lead change and influence local agendas. Through our many partnerships with employers and other stakeholders, we have established our place at the heart of our community and as a key partner in the regeneration of Bishop Auckland and south Durham. We are entrepreneurial, ambitious and we expect excellence – from ourselves and from our students. These are the values that guide all of our activities: Caring We are passionate about people and concerned for the wellbeing of all students and staff Ambition We empower students to aim high and achieve their full potential Respect Regardless of our differences, everyone is valued and treated with kindness Equality We are inclusive and enable all members of our community to thrive Excellence We strive for exceptional standards in everything we do Resilience When faced with challenges, we work together to adapt and bounce back more determined than before 5 "Bishop Auckland College is a great place to study or work and our culture is quite distinctive". 6 External and Policy Context Whilst considering the external and policy context for FE out of which the strategic priorities for Bishop Auckland College emerge, wide-ranging developments and opportunities must be taken into account. These include: Opportunities ► A substantially declining demographic profile of young people over the last decade, as well as strong competition from an increasingly diverse and fragmented post-16 landscape. Opportunities lie ahead, however, with analysis of local schools census data demonstrating a changing trend, with the number of 16 year olds increasing from 2019-20 onwards. ► Apprenticeship reforms, including introduction of the levy, were introduced on 1 May 2017, aimed at giving employers ownership of skills and driving up engagement - a real opportunity for colleges. Following implementation, however, these reforms led to a discontinuity in activity nationally, as employers sought to understand the new systems and how to maximise the benefits. Once established, it appears that many employers in sectors such as engineering are really embracing the opportunities. ► The Post-16 Skills Plan (July 2016) built upon recommendations of the review of technical education led by Lord Sainsbury. Introduction of ‘T Levels’ from 2020/21, with 15 technical education routes and more substantial qualifications and work placements, has the potential to transform the life chances of many young people. Challenges ► Reduced government funding for adult learning, with an allied expansion of adult learning loans to embrace a wider age range and qualification levels. ► Increases in National Insurance and employer pension contributions have added to escalating operating costs. ► The introduction of compulsory English and mathematics resits for post-16 students who have not achieved a good pass at school has placed an enormous pressure upon colleges to rapidly build capacity and staff expertise in these areas. ► A rapid growth in the incidence of mental health issues amongst young people nationally means increasing demands on already stretched resources for student support. Performance Headlines The last strategic planning period has yielded some impressive outcomes for Bishop Auckland College as well as some challenges: Headlines include: ► Strong student achievement and progression rates in the vast majority of College curriculum areas. ► We have worked hard to simultaneously manage costs and develop strategic opportunities and our financial health is good. ► Approval to register with the Office for Students and a positive Quality Assurance Agency review in 2016 underpin substantial developments in the higher education offer. ► The Ofsted inspection of November/December 2018 challenged us to think differently about some aspects of our work and to embrace opportunities for transformational change; Strategic College Improvement Funds have enabled modernisation of some College systems and investment in staff development. 7 Recent Developments In relation to potential strategic developments, the College takes decisions based on careful management of calculated risk whilst ensuring that we stay true to our core mission for all students of ‘developing advanced skills for a bright future’. We have been keen to seize upon new initiatives only where these exploit market opportunities or respond to areas of specific need. We work collaboratively with a wide range of partners, knowing that partnership is critical to addressing, head on, some of the key challenges that we face. Meeting the future sometimes requires brave strategic decisions to be made. Some of our key strategic actions over recent years have included: ► The 2018/19 launch of Durham Gateway, the
