News CONTACT US [email protected] FE colleges to fully reopen in September is the ‘intention’ BILLY CAMDEN [email protected] It is the government’s “intention” to get colleges “back in September”, the prime minister said this week after announcing that schools will reopen by then with “full attendance” as social distancing rules are relaxed. Boris Johnson told the House of Commons on Tuesday that he will reduce the distance that needs to be maintained between people from two metres to one from July 4. After announcing a raft of industries reopening from that date, such as pubs, restaurants, hairdressers, hotels and campsites, the prime minister said: “Primary and secondary education will recommence in September with full attendance and those children who can already go to school should do so because it is safe.” He was later asked by Richard Graham MP if he would agree that the “absolutely crucial Boris Johnson goal is for all children and students and FE colleges and universities to be able to go would not be possible to return all students and lots of students post-16 travel a long way back to school, college and university in the with social distancing rules in place. to get to college.” autumn absolutely safely?” David Hughes, chief executive of the Following Johnson’s announcement on Association of Colleges, appeared in front of Tuesday, Geoff Barton, general secretary the education select committee on Wednesday of the Association of School and College “It is going and was asked by MPs if he thought his Leaders, said that it was “pure fantasy” to to be very difficult members could restart with full attendance by suggest that reducing the social distancing September as the prime minister suggested. rule to one metre would allow all children and to open fully” “I think it is going to very difficult to open students to return in September. fully,” he said. “We need a proper strategy to bring children “We are expecting most students to have a back into schools and colleges based in reality Johnson replied: “It is our intention to get blended offer.

  • Post-16 Option Further Education College
    Post-16 Option Further Education College Our Isle of Wight Further Education (FE) Colleges The Isle of Wight has one general Further Education College, which is called The Isle of Wight College. It is quite a large College which provides a wide range of vocational courses at different levels, including a few at degree level (in conjunction with other Universities). Whilst the main IW College site is in Newport next to B and Q, the IW College also has a site at Whippingham called CECAMM which specialises in Engineering courses. There are several smaller specialist Colleges on the Island, two of which offer full-time courses directly linked to the Isle of Wight College – the UK Sailing Academy (UKSA) in Cowes, and Platform One (Music College) in Newport. The Military Preparation College (MPCT) in Ryde, offers personal development courses which are often helpful for young people preparing to apply for the Armed Forces. HTP Apprenticeship College in Newport offers full-time study courses in a range of vocational areas. Other Further Education Colleges Some students from the Island travel to Further Education Colleges off-island for vocational courses. Sparsholt College (near Winchester) specialises in animal care and land-based courses including veterinary nursing, equine studies, agriculture, agricultural machinery, and fisheries. On-site accommodation is available at Sparsholt College – contact the college directly for costs and grants available. Dental Nursing courses are available at Eastleigh College.

Next steps 30 Acknowledgments 33 4 Shaping the digital future of FE and skills Introduction Introduction In March 2020, colleges in the UK closed their doors and rapidly moved to wholescale remote learning and teaching. Emergency IT infrastructure and software was brought in at pace, along with fast-track digital upskilling for staff and learners. Such upheaval posed a challenge for many but most prevailed with their best endeavour. Within a matter of days, most learners could log into live-streamed lectures or later watch the recording; they could download e-books, videos or other resources; and they could submit work online. Although this kind of studying was typical during lockdown, the use of technology was often simplistic and not always as engaging, exciting or collaborative as it could be. It sufficed as a stopgap but we need a more ambitious model for the future. And at present, in the absence of readily available, affordable, accessible and engaging digital resources and assessment tools, such as immersive virtual reality, there are courses, such as engineering, construction, or hospitality and catering, which are impossible to deliver entirely online.
