NP: A primary school in our academy acquired their first VEX IQ kit to stimulate a few SEND children during lunch times. Within a few months, 3 of our schools had after school robotics clubs and we’ve been growing our teams ever since. Currently every school in our academy has multiple VEX IQ teams who typically meet once or twice a week to work on their robot. How do you feel VEX IQ fits into your current curriculum? 3 AD: VEX IQ is a perfect fit for both the D&T and Computing schemes of work for KS3 an KS4. It teaches the students to be creative, innovative, resilient, reflective and evaluative learners and they begin to understand the value of iterative design development.

    Cardinal Newman College REPORT FROM THE INSPECTORATE 2000-01 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.

    Central Lancashire Local Plan Issues and Options Consultation November 2019 Annex 3 – Site Submissions Received for Preston: Ingol and Cottam Introduction As set out in Section 8 of the Central Lancashire Local Plan Issues and Options Consultation document (November 2019), we are currently looking for land to provide new homes, jobs and facilities in Central Lancashire to meet the predicted needs of a growing population, to 2036. This section of the Annex comprises all sites which have been put forward for consideration in the Preston area in this specific ward. These site suggestions were submitted through two Call for Sites exercises, during which stakeholders (including interested bodies such as landowners, developers and the public) had the opportunity to present land in their interest or ownership that was considered potentially suitable for future development. In addition, further sites were suggested by public bodies, which have also been included in this Annex for consideration. We are seeking your comments on what has been submitted, and which sites you think should be taken forward. How to Read this Document Sites are first grouped into electoral wards in Preston, then listed by their SHELAA reference in ascending order. (The SHELAA refers to the Strategic Housing and Employment Land Availability Assessment, the exercise that was undertaken prior to the sites being presented at this Issues and Options stage.) If you are looking for a specific site with a Call for Sites reference (e.g. CLCFS00001) you can find its corresponding SHELAA reference in the table to cross reference. If sites do not have a Call for Sites reference, these are sites which have been added in by Preston City Council.
