Current Statistics 1. Introduction Lews Castle College UHI serves the communities of the Western Isles and has campuses on four of the islands – the main campus is at Stornoway on Lewis with other centres on North Uist, Benbecula and Barra. As part of the University of the Highlands and Islands, the college leads on several online courses and so has Further and Higher Education students from across Scotland, the UK and in a few some instances some courses are delivered internationally. Covering an island chain 130 miles in length, dominated by remote and rural populations, we offer courses from SCQF level 1 up to level 12. In order to provide a broad range of curriculum for a relatively small population base, we mostly have small class sizes and there is an emphasis on personal support from tutors to the students. Community is also key, as people often know one another through other means. This can have its disadvantages as well, as people’s circumstances are often common knowledge. Our Mainstreaming and Equality Outcomes Report 2013 to 2017 details our commitment to creating a positive environment where students can study and achieve their full potential. Our aim is that anyone can study here at a level that is appropriate to them and receive the encouragement and learning and teaching experience to enable them to achieve their maximum potential in education before going on to a positive destination where they can continue to contribute effectively to society. Current Statistics In 2015-16, Lews Castle College UHI had seven care-experienced students at FE level who disclosed their status and one identified at HE level. However, through informal non-recorded means we were aware of a further seven at FE level and another three at HE level. The pattern is similar for 2016-17. Care Leaver Disclosures: FE formal FE informal HE formal HE informal Total 2015-16 7 7 1 3 18 2016-17 6 4 7 0 17 Our responsibilities and what we are doing about them As Corporate Parents, we have responsibilities as defined in the Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014 as “the formal and local partnerships between all services responsible for working together to meet the needs of looked after children, young people and care leavers”. In practical terms, this requires us as a college to take all the actions necessary to promote and support the well-being of care leavers in order to achieve the best outcomes for them before, during and after their time at our college. 97% of care-experienced young people were either abused or neglected by their parents. They, as children, did nothing wrong. They may have moved several times whilst in care, at short notice, and may have been separated from siblings. There may not have been any stable adult relationship in their lives for a long time. A care experienced person can be someone who was looked after in various ways: Someone who has been in residential care Someone who was in foster care Someone in kinship care, living with a family member other than a parent Someone who is looked after at home, with Social Work support In simple terms, a corporate parent is intended to carry out many of the roles a parent would and give the kind of support a parent would. This support is necessary because children and young people who are care experienced have the poorest outcomes of all children and young people in Scotland. Evidence suggests that 33% of young people and 31% of adult prisoners self-identified as having been in care as a child. 45% of 5 to 17 year olds living in care were assessed as having a diagnosable mental health issue 40% of care experienced young people leave education with 1 or more qualification at SCQF level 5, as opposed to 86% of all school leavers Only 5% of looked after young people went on to higher education after leaving school, compared with a national average of 40% 9 months after leaving school, 29% of care experienced young people are classed as not being in a positive destination, against 9% of non-care experienced peers. The sad reality is that currently care-experienced young people are more likely to end up in prison than at university. Our job is to do what we can to change these figures positively. In order to be sure we are doing all we can, we need to first identify our care-experienced students and applicants. We can make improvements in how we explain questions asked on forms relating to being care-experienced and how that information is used. We can ensure that all staff are aware of the obstacles and issues that care-experienced applicants may be encountering and we are developing ‘contextualised admissions’ designed to help people who have protected characteristics, with a view to including care-experienced young people in this work. Disclosure and improving our disclosure environment are key, as is staff development around the responsibilities we all have towards care-experienced applicants, students and leavers. Most of our plan is concerned with addressing these issues and the steps we are putting in place and the monitoring of these for effectiveness that we are doing. Currently students may disclose their status as care experienced at application and enrolment. However, the two application processes (FE and HE) ask the questions in different ways and the wording is not designed to encourage disclosure. Some of the wording is prescribed by maintaining consistency with UCAS and the SFC. Therefore, if we cannot alter the wording, we need to improve how we explain what we are asking and why. The Student Funding Officer deals with all applications for bursary and EMA funding at the FE level. This is often where informal disclosure occurs, due to requirements regarding standard questions relating to ‘parental income’. She is very experienced in the requirements of the bursary system and can provide a bespoke personal service to anyone who is care experienced, helping them to complete the form appropriately and ensuring that they are receiving the most appropriate form of funding. At Higher Education, notification of any UCAS applicant who has declared that they are care-experienced is now sent to the Student Services Manager and she is in a position to advise students of the SAAS funding that may be appropriate, as well as other potential sources of funding. Students and their appropriate adults can also access drop-in sessions held throughout the summer for help and advice around these issues. The online application for Discretionary Funds currently does not ask if a student is care-experienced, but this will be amended for the next academic session across UHI. The Student Services team of two and a half also is heavily involved in the Induction and Enrolment process at the start of the academic session. On-site students have the opportunity to talk one-to-one with Student Services staff and initial contacts can be made and follow up appointments made for the first few weeks of term. The named contact for care-experienced young people is Kate Mawby, the Student Support Services Manager. The plan is the responsibility of everyone in the college, including teaching and support staff. Health and Welfare The Student Services Team at Lews Castle College handles financial, welfare, disability and student engagement issues for our student body. We take a person-centred approach, and may well deal with a student on a variety of interlinked issues; one student may be eligible for childcare support and discretionary funds have a disability requiring a support plan and be referred for counselling, all within our office. Students are not a tick-box exercise for us, they are complex people with multiple strands of their lives and we may provide input into some of them in their time with us. For anyone who is care-experienced, we offer one-to-one meeting with Student Services to make sure that they are aware of the range of support we can offer and find out what they feel they might need. Financial advice is not limited to FE and HE government funding but includes a broader perspective of student funding queries at FE and HE level. This includes benefits advice for students, issues of eligibility, debt management, and signposting to third parties is used where appropriate for specialist advice and support. Welfare issues may mean we refer to external third parties or partners such as Western Isles Foyer, CAMH, Western isles Women’s Aid, and our local Who Cares Scotland co-ordinator etc. The Student Services Team are involved in supporting students with mental health issues, and have all undertaken the Mental Health First Aid course. We have a college counsellor who is external to the college staff, and we have modified the referral process to ensure the confidentiality, which is so crucial in small communities. We are able to issue vouchers for the local Food Bank and work with a variety of partners locally to improve student knowledge of and accessibility to sources of support. Similarly, we have good relationships with the local Homelessness staff in the council and the local Lone Parent Advisor at the Jobcentre. We have some laptops that can be loaned out to student to give parity of access to ICT. Students can also use the open access PCs across the college, in the Learning Resource Centre and at the various centres across the islands. This can be helpful for students from poorer backgrounds who cannot afford PCs or broadband and in many places across the island; connectivity can be patchy or non-existent.

  • Assignation of Argyll College to the Regional Strategic Body for the Highlands and Islands, the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI)
    Assignation of Argyll College to the Regional Strategic Body for the Highlands and Islands, the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) Consultation Paper May 2018 ASSIGNATION OF ARGYLL COLLEGE TO THE REGIONAL STRATEGIC BODY FOR THE HIGHLANDS AND ISLANDS, THE UNIVERSITY OF THE HIGHLANDS AND ISLANDS (UHI) CONSULTATION PAPER SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1 The college sector was restructured in 2014 to create 13 regions, three of which are served by more than one college. In the three multi-college regions, colleges were assigned to a Regional Strategic Body (RSB). The RSB is responsible for securing provision of fundable further and higher education in its region. 1.2 On 1 August 2014, the University of Highlands and Islands (UHI) became the RSB for the Highlands and Islands, and those colleges in the region that were already fundable bodies listed in schedule 2 to the Further and Higher Education (Scotland) Act 2005 (“the 2005 Act”) – i.e. colleges directly funded by the Scottish Further and Higher Education Funding Council (“the SFC”) – were assigned to UHI. From that date, UHI assumed all of the responsibilities of RSB for the region, other than the direct funding of assigned colleges, responsibility for which was subsequently transferred from the SFC in April 2015. 1.3 Argyll College (“the College”) is located within the Highlands and Islands region and should therefore be assigned to UHI as the RSB to ensure appropriate accountability across the region. However, as the College was not already a fundable body listed in schedule 2 to the 2005 Act, it could only be assigned to UHI if the SFC proposed or approved the assignation.

  • Islands Strategy 2020 Preface
    Islands Strategy 2020 Preface This is an exciting and energising time for Scotland’s islands given the Islands (Scotland) Act 2018, the National Islands T Plan and the developing Islands Deal. But there are significant challenges too, such as the impact of COVID-19 on the economies of the islands, the impact of climate change and the potential impact of projected population decline, especially in the Western Isles. The shape of education and research in the islands must be informed by both these challenges and these opportunities. As the only university with a physical base and delivering a tertiary educational offering within each of Scotland’s main island groupings, the University of the Highlands and Islands is inspired to deepen its engagement in the islands in order to make an incisive contribution to the sustainable and inclusive development of the islands in new and innovative ways. By utilising its strengths in further education, higher education, research and knowledge exchange, both within and outwith the islands, the university will work with stakeholders, taking a place- based, challenge-led and research-driven approach to key issues such as repopulation, workforce development in key sectors, the impact of climate change and talent attraction. This is an outward-facing strategy, one that builds on the unique strengths and profiles of the islands and draws on the university’s international connectivity with other island groupings around the world, and one which affirms, too, the growing importance of the islands cultural and historical connections with Nordic, Arctic and near Arctic neighbours. It is also one that will facilitate stronger cohesion of university activities across the islands and will provide new opportunities for the island-based academic activity to be at the centre for initiatives for the whole university and beyond.

New interim targets and a revised final target are currently being assessed by the Scottish Government, as the 2020 target of a 42% reduction in carbon emissions was achieved in 2014 and there is a desire for Scotland to show greater ambition and leadership. Part 4 of the Climate Change (Scotland) Act 2009 listed 150 public sector ‘major players’ in Scotland, these public bodies are required to act on climate change through mitigation and adaptation actions to help deliver the Act’s reduction in carbon emissions, and report annually on their progress. The Public Bodies Duties Guidance named 44 universities and colleges within these ‘major players’, consisting of 19 HE and 25 FE institutions. Each major player is required to submit a report annually to the Scottish Government, through the Sustainable Scotland Network (SSN). FHE represent 29% of the Public Sector major players, the third largest sector behind Local Authorities and National Health Services.

  • Energy Engineering News
    Lews Castle College Technology Department Energy Engineering News There is a lot happening in Energy Engineering at Lews Castle College UHI (LCC) in addition to regular teaching. The purpose of this newsletter is to let everyone know about the projects and excellent work undertaken by our students and staff throughout 2018, to recognise the hard work of the researchers, and to acknowledge all the external help received. Hydrogen Technology Competition In January, a group of students entered an international competition where the aim was to demonstrate that hydrogen technology could be viable in certain large-scale niche applications. Ewan Finlayson, Viktor Malovs, Alick Maclean and Giuseppe Petricca investigated a complex scenario where the Western Isles Hospital would be powered by a large wind turbine, with a hydrogen system used for energy balancing. The oxygen produced as the byproduct of electrolysis could be used for medical applications. Any excess hydrogen would be injected into the Stornoway Gas Network. The students were mentored by Alasdair Macleod. Though the team did not win, they were the top ranked university group from all of Europe. System Model Lews Castle College Technology Department Hydrogen Activity Analysis N e w Hydrogen Engine A detailed analysis of current hydrogen activity in Scotland and A company in Dunfermline, EIS Ltd, has Europe was conducted by LCC working with the Energy Skills invented a novel type of engine fuelled by Partnership to predict future activity and to plan suitable training hydrogen and with few moving parts.

  • Scottish Model Publication Scheme
    Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 Guide to Information Published by Lews Castle College UHI Under the Model Publication Scheme This document is also available in Large print (16pt) www.lews.uhi.ac.uk INTRODUCTION In this section you will find • An Introduction to the Publication Scheme • The 9 Broad Classes of Information • How We Make the Information Available INTRODUCTION TO THE MODEL PUBLICATION SCHEME The Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 (FOISA) provides individuals with a right of access to all recorded information held by Lews Castle College UHI. Anyone can use this right, and information can only be withheld where FOISA expressly permits it. FOISA requires Lews Castle College UHI to adopt and maintain a publication scheme, and to publish information in accordance with that scheme1. A publication scheme is a document which describes the information the college publishes, tells the public where to find it, and whether there is a charge for it. When deciding what it will publish, a college must consider the public interest in information about2: • its services, the cost of providing services, and the standards attained by those services • the facts or analyses, on the basis of which it has made decisions of importance to the public • the reasons for the decisions it has made The Act also allows the Scottish Information Commissioner to prepare model publication schemes which can be adopted by a group of authorities3. The Commissioner has developed the Model Publication Scheme (‘MPS’), which is suitable for adoption by all public authorities, including Scottish colleges. Lews Castle College UHI has adopted the Scottish Information Commissioner’s MPS in its entirety, without amendment.
