    Woodhouse 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.

  • Sixth Form Newsletter 28Th March 2018
    Sixth Form Newsletter 28th March 2018 Head of Sixth Form’s Welcome A huge warm welcome to our final edition of the newsletter for this term. I am so proud of the energy and enthusiasm students and staff have put in over the last term to not only to improve academic attainment but also their BRIDGES characteristics as well. One of the areas that I am particularly proud of is the high attendance rates that our Sixth Form students have. A big congratulations to 12 Newcastle for having highest attendance at 97.2% This week we welcomed Zareen Roy-Macauley, a first year undergraduate studying Human, Social and Political Sciences at Cambridge and Ollie Hull, a final year Biologist studying at Oxford. They spoke to students who were thinking about applying to Oxbridge about their experiences of applying and studying at Oxbridge. It was great to hear their open and honest experiences and for our students to be able to ask questions in an open and honest forum. Many thanks to them both for giving up their time to support our students in this way. The deadline for completing parent questionnaires has been extended to Monday 2nd April. If you have any problems accessing the questionnaire, or require a printed version, please contact [email protected]. This edition contains the timetable for the Year 12 exams, which take place from June 4th to June 8th. I know students will begin to prepare for these exams well in advance. We have decided to give the Year 12 students the opportunity to independently study off site for that week and we will go through arrangements around signing in and out closer to the time.
