I always had a passion for hair so decided to learn more and achieve a qualification that would enable me to work in a salon. My teachers are great and really support me and are understanding of my life outside of college. I’ve made some good friends at college and I now feel more like me, and not just a working mum.

    REPORT FROM THE INSPECTORATE Strode College February 1994 THE FURTHER EDUCATION FUNDING COUNCIL THE FURTHER EDUCATION FUNDING COUNCIL The Further Education Funding Council (FEFC) has a statutory duty to ensure that there are satisfactory arrangements to assess the quality of provision in the further education sector. It discharges the duty in part through its inspectorate, which reports on each college in the sector every four years. The Council’s inspectorate also assesses and reports on a national basis on specific curriculum areas and advises the Council’s quality assessment committee. College inspections involve both full-time inspectors and registered part- time inspectors who have specialist knowledge and experience in the areas they inspect. Inspection teams normally include at least one member from outside the world of education and a nominated member of staff from the college being inspected. GRADE DESCRIPTORS The procedures for assessing quality are described in Council Circular 93/28. In the course of inspecting colleges, inspectors assess the strengths and weaknesses of each aspect of provision they inspect. Assessments are set out in their reports. They also summarise their judgements on the balance between strengths and weaknesses using a five-point scale. Each grade on the scale has the following descriptor: • grade 1 – provision which has many strengths and very few weaknesses • grade 2 – provision in which the strengths clearly outweigh the weaknesses • grade 3 – provision with a balance of strengths and weaknesses •

  • Art & Design End of Year Catalogue 2020
    End of year show Art & Design Student Show Catalogue June 2020 Cover photo credit Photographer: Catherine Hyde Fashon designer: Ellen Kinder Katy Quinn Principal, Strode College Welcome to Strode College’s End of Year Show 2020 Strode has held an end of year Art Show for several decades and the staff and students were determined to not let Covid-19 stand in the way of this well- established tradition. So the 2020 End of Year Show marks another innovative and creative approach through an E-book, building on the more traditional, historical venues such as Crispin Hall and Moorlands Factory. Typically, I’d be welcoming you in person to our End of Year Show, an annual event that is pivotal in the Art and Design calendar. But this year I am welcoming you virtually and am delighted that we can still showcase the amazing artwork that is tes- tament to the efforts and skills of students and staff from Creative Arts and Design. Quite clearly, this year we needed to reconsider how to celebrate and share the work undertaken in the visual arts; hopefully you will enjoy the work that is presented in this book and even recognise some of our artists and their work. It is pleasing to see that range of disciplines have been explored and are well represented by the students in Art and Design. I hope you enjoy the references in props and set design to ‘The Little Shop of Horrors’ which was a joint venture between our visual and performing arts team. We now need to find a suitable space in the college to showcase “Audrey!” Other positive collaborations include the live shoe design brief undertaken with Clarks design and innovation team, which provides our students with a wonderful insight into corporate design.

  • Somerset Schools' Aa / Somerset County Aa
    SOMERSET SCHOOLS’ AA / SOMERSET COUNTY AA COMBINED EVENTS AND RACE WALKING CHAMPIONSHIPS Millfield School, Street Saturday and Sunday 29 and 30 April 2017 On Tuesday 21 February, information and entry forms were sent to our 60 schools and colleges and the 4 major Track and Field clubs in Somerset, with a closing date of Thursday 30 March. The details were also emailed to the schools and colleges, to all the Somerset clubs and to various parents and coaches. The information was sent to the Dorset Schools’ AA, the Dorset County AA and to all those guest competitors who had competed in recent years. Final details were sent to all competing schools, colleges, clubs and guests on Tuesday 18 April. As usual, substitutions could be made after the entry date, and indeed, on the days of competition. We enjoyed the usual first-class hospitality at Millfield School, thanks to close liaison with Alan Richardson, excellent co-operation from Colin Ashman and his ground-staff and the generosity of the school. The track and the field event sites were in superb order, and cold refreshments were on sale on both days. Grateful thanks must go to everyone at Millfield School for such attention to detail and to Nick and Sally Higman for their careful inspections and meticulous preparation of the field event areas and all the implements. The late-April weather brought us cool breezes on both days with some heavy drizzle on the Sunday and gusty winds (up to -3.2mps on the Saturday and -4.1mps on the Sunday) were frustrating in one or two heats on the track.

  • Art Foundation Courses - What You Need to Know
    Art Foundation Courses - What you need to know Art Foundation courses have been around for many years and they are offered at colleges and universities. So what are they? What do they involve? Where should you study? What is an Art Foundation Course ? An Art Foundation course is a stepping stone year between studying Art at school and studying Art/Design on a full-time degree at university or starting a creative apprenticeship. These courses enable students to explore their creativity and experience art/design forms they haven’t tried before. Students can decide which area they want to take further by developing a portfolio to showcase their talent and apply to a degree course or apprenticeship. What do you study on an Art Foundation course? Specialist areas covered can include drawing, painting, fashion, textiles, installation art, printmaking, graphic illustration, 3D design and fine art. Generally courses are structured into different phases Phase One - Learning Skills and Content Through studio and workshop projects students are introduced to a range of materials and methods of working. They'll learn how to research and develop ideas and how to evaluate and reflect on progress. Phase Two - Development and Progression Building on skills from Phase One students integrate research, ideas and methods of working to produce a body of work that allows them to analyse their interests and to investigate directions to pursue. Phase Three - Project Proposal and Realisation This focuses on the final major project integrating planning, research, ideas, methods, evaluation and reflection. The project is displayed in the foundation exhibition - open to the public, family and friends.
