The partnership is made up of the following: − Six partner education providers; South Devon College, Cornwall College Group, PETROC College, City College Plymouth, Yeovil College and Gershwins Academy. − Five employer partners; Tom Chapman, Carol Caine, Take Two, RT Hair and Kumiega Skin Care Clinic. − One awarding body: City and Guilds Group Business.

Identifying the skills gaps; both vocational and teaching, learning and assessment (TLA) focussed. 2. Undertaking training and development days; hosted by each of the education partners. 3. Dissemination of the training and development days back to the teams of each education partner. Learning plans and resources developed. 4. Delivery of the new learning plans and resources to learners. 5. Evaluation of the project and future plans. Progress to date Identifying the skills gaps The initial stage of the project was to identify the skills gaps. To capture this data and to provide a baseline for the project, the project produced two surveys for the education partners to complete. The first survey asked the Hair and Beauty staff to assess their confidence of vocational skills. The second survey asked them to reflect on their TLA practice, this was based on the Education and Training Foundation Professional Standards survey.

  • Transport Policy Statement for Learners Aged 16-18 in Further Education and Continuing Learners with Learning Difficulties and O
    Transport policy statement for learners aged 16-18 in further education and continuing learners with learning difficulties and or disabilities aged 19 and over from September 2017 1. What is the purpose of this policy statement? Torbay has an established public transport network that enables students to access post-16 provision in and around Torbay. This statement explains the circumstances when the council and post-16 sixth forms/colleges will provide assistance with the cost of accessing this network, and the assistance available for students who are not able to access public transport due to a learning difficulty or disability. It also directs students to other assistance that may be available directly from sixth forms/colleges. 2. What are the criteria for assistance? Assistance from the local authority There is no automatic entitlement to free home to school or college transport once a student is over 16. A bus pass can be purchased through Stagecoach in Torbay for £180 per term. The local authority provides assistance for some students with learning difficulties and/or disabilities This is individually assessed and detailed information can be found in Section 5. Otherwise local authority assistance is only given on an exceptional basis. Students from families on low income can apply to their school or college for bursary funding to assist with their travel costs. For many students this is discretionary and schools/colleges will assist in different ways. Where the route from a student’s home to the public transport network is considered unsafe, the local authority will provide transport to that point free of charge.
