I am very grateful for the support that the FE Commissioner has received from yourself and the College during the Appraisal, and the steps you have taken to date to respond to the recommendations in my predecessor's letter of 22 April 2014. As you are aware, in light of the notification by the Skills Funding Agency that the College's financial health is inadequate, the FE Commissioner reviewed the position of your College between 17 and 28 March 2014. The FE Commissioner acknowledged the capacity and capability of the governance and leadership to deliver financial recovery in the short term, but concluded that the College could not continue to operate on its own. The FE Commissioner was asked to lead a Structure and Prospects Appraisal to determine the way forward for land-based provision in the area. This Appraisal was completed in September 2014. I have now received the FE Commissioner's Appraisal report - a copy of which is attached.

  • Hartpury University 10080811 Access and Participation Plan
    Hartpury University 10080811 Access and participation plan 2020-21 to 2024-25 1. Assessment of performance1 Since 2012, Hartpury has submitted Access Agreements and associated plans and returns successfully as a Further Education Corporation (FEC). In 2018, we transferred to the Higher Education (HE) sector and gained University title (having achieved Taught Degree Awarding Powers (TDAP) in 2017). Hartpury’s organisational structure evolved significantly, resulting in Hartpury College and Hartpury University, two specialist organisations, side-by-side on one campus with a shared mission and set of values. Hartpury University is therefore uniquely positioned to meet national priorities, and we remain agile and responsive to changes in performance where there is evidence of inequality. Inclusivity and widening access remains at the heart of what we do. We are proud of our history of successfully supporting students from non-traditional backgrounds in HE and currently 42% of our students are included within one or more of our target groups2. We are committed to being ‘inclusive in all we do’ (a strategic priority within the ‘Hartpury 2025’3 strategy). We recognise particular strengths associated with mature students and those disclosing disability and we champion all student achievements at Hartpury. As a relatively small HE institution (HEI) (circa. 1800 HE students), focused on specialist provision in Agriculture, Equine, Sport, Veterinary Nursing, and Animal, we have valued the opportunity to review and assess our performance as part of this exercise. Our analysis focuses on full-time undergraduate students, due to the low number of part time students enrolled at Hartpury, and predominantly uses data provided by Office for Students (OfS) dashboard unless otherwise stated.

This document is a summary of information submitted by the provider to the OfS. This document is a self-report by the provider only and does not indicate any OfS assessment of compliance. 1. Ambition and strategy South Gloucestershire and Stroud College’s ambition and strategy as detailed in the 2019-20 access and participation plan: Our overall Ambition and Strategy as set out in our 2019-20 APP highlights our core commitments to our underrepresented students as a whole and our key target groups and their attendant lifecycle stages. These commitments are set out below: Commitments to our underrepresented students as a cohort: We will focus on student support, particularly responding to the increasing volume of students who self- declare a disability. We will prioritise further investment in financial hardship support, responding to the increasing number of students from underrepresented neighbourhoods whilst being mindful of the changes in maintenance grants. Our Bursary and Hardship Fund Policy and Procedure (2018-20) will be updated on a regular basis to help support the broad demographic of students we teach, including our underrepresented groups. In addition, we have a College Hardship Fund to support students. The Hardship Fund is carefully administered to ensure transparency and clarity for eligible students who apply. To date this fund has supported many students who may have otherwise left Higher Education and not continued with their studies.

    Aylesbury College REPORT FROM THE INSPECTORATE 1997-98 THE FURTHER EDUCATION FUNDING COUNCIL THE FURTHER EDUCATION FUNDING COUNCIL The Further Education Funding Council 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 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.
