  • Norton Radstock College INSPECTION REPORT: NORTON RADSTOCK COLLEGE MARCH 1999 REINSPECTION MARCH 2000
    TRAINING STANDARDS COUNCIL INSPECTION REPORT MARCH 1999 REINSPECTION MARCH 2000 Norton Radstock College INSPECTION REPORT: NORTON RADSTOCK COLLEGE MARCH 1999 REINSPECTION MARCH 2000 SUMMARY Norton Radstock College offers satisfactory training in environmental conservation, engineering and business administration. Provision in animal care and horticulture is less well delivered. At the time of the first inspection, its hairdressing and printing training was less than satisfactory, but plans were well advanced to address the weaknesses. At reinspection, the hairdressing programme was satisfactory and had been subject to great improvements but these had not yet had an impact on achievement and retention rates. The problems on the printing programme were proving more intractable, and the printing training was still unsatisfactory. Policies and procedures for promoting equal opportunities are comprehensive. The college has good trainee support systems, particularly for trainees who are based largely in the college. It has good links with employers and its management of training is good. At the first inspection, quality assurance systems did not address the particular needs of work-based training, and internal verification in many occupational areas was weak. By the time of reinspection, several new quality assurance methods had been implemented, and were beginning to show results. The college was aware of the problems in printing, and was still taking action to rectify them. As a result of the reinspection of Norton Radstock College, the original published text for hair and beauty, media and design and quality assurance has been replaced by new text which makes reference to the original inspection findings. This summary page, the overall report introduction and the inspection findings introduction have also been amended to reflect the findings of the reinspection.

    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.
