The FE Commissioner's team undertook the assessment following the college being awarded an Inadequate rating by Ofsted in its March 2020 report. The FE Commissioner has found that Shrewsbury Colleges Group has quickly recognised the need to improve safeguarding measures and has made significant strides towards addressing areas for improvement identified by Ofsted. That said, I remain concerned by the outstanding issues that threaten the college’s immediate and long-term future. I urge you to implement the FE Commissioner’s recommendations, including the development of a new strategic plan for the college, implementation of senior leadership development plans, and the appointment of a successor to the safeguarding lead to the board. I have accepted all the recommendations of the FE Commissioner. A copy of the assessment is provided with this letter. The assessment and my letter will be published on gov.uk. Once confirmed, the intended publication date will be shared with you. I have written separately to the following local MPs, whose constituencies are served by the college, to inform them of the FE Commissioner’s findings: • Daniel Kawczynski MP Shrewsbury and Atcham • Owen Paterson MP North Shropshire • Mark Pritchard MP The Wrekin • Lucy Allan MP Telford • Phillip Dunne MP Ludlow • Craig Williams MP Montgomeryshire Yours sincerely, Gillian Keegan MP Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Apprenticeships and Skills .

    For more information on DeHavilland and how we can help with political monitoring, custom research and consultancy, contact: +44 (0)20 3033 3870 [email protected] www.dehavilland.co.uk With that spirit in mind, DeHavilland brings you an update on a selection of Private Members’ Bills drawn in the 2017 Ballot. As we reach the halfway point in the bumper two-year session of Parliament, those MPs lucky enough to have their Bills chosen last year have found that fortune can be a tricky business. Some Bills such as Kevin Hollinrake’s Parental Bereavement (Leave and Pay) Bill have had a smooth journey through Parliament, whereas others such as Angus Brendan MacNeil’s Refugees (Family Reunion) (No. 2) Bill have had a rockier time. The following briefing provides a list of those Bills which may, if passed into law, significantly impact their relevant sectors. The Bills have also been narrowed down to those which have gained or have the potential to gain momentum in Parliament. We have provided a succinct description of both the sponsor and content of each Bill alongside analysis of its Parliamentary support and the next steps in the legislative process. The listing of Bills in this briefing begin with those furthest through the process to become law, gradually moving to those that are further away.
