INTRODUCTION This document provides Hull City Council and its internal and external stakeholders with an overview of how education, learning and skills providers within the Hull local authority boundary are performing against the Ofsted inspection framework. The providers listed in this document are those that receive public funding from the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) and deliver one or more of study programme, traineeship and/or apprenticeship provision. The report does not include details of commercially financed providers, adult education provision or employers with non-accredited provision. It contains an overview of Ofsted’s Annual Report on further education and skills and sets this in context against the local profile of post-16 training provision in Hull allowing readers to gain an understanding of how Hull is performing against national statistical norms. It also contains details of sub-contracted post-16 provision. Sub-contracted provision is where providers are contracted to deliver on behalf of another organisation. The quality of this sub- contracted provision is judged by the Ofsted rating of the provider issuing the sub-contract or “prime contract holder”. A detailed breakdown of Ofsted results for the prime contract holders sub- contracting provision to Hull based post-16 providers is included in this report. 2. THE NATIONAL PICTURE The further education and skills sector is mainly made up of independent learning providers, colleges and community learning and skills providers. The sector provides education, training and apprenticeships to around 2.9 million learners aged 16 and over. On 31st August 2020, there were just over 1,900 open and funded further education and skills providers. This is a decrease of 2% compared with 31st August 2019 but a 60% increase compared with 2017. Most of the increase relates to new independent learning providers providing levy- funded apprenticeships. The number of independent learning providers, which include employer providers, more than doubled. The impact of COVID-19 on the further education sector remains to be seen however almost all of the providers remained in Ofsted’s systems between February and August 2020. Page 5 of 21 Figure 1: Number of further education and skills providers, inspections and monitoring visits in 2019/20. Independent learning providers represent the largest number of further education and skills providers. General further education colleges educate by far the largest number of learners: over 1.4 million in 2019 (almost 50% of learners). The type of provision that further education and skills providers offer varies. General further education colleges usually provide all types. In independent learning providers, apprentices account for over two thirds of learners and in community learning and skills providers, nine out of 10 learners are taking adult education courses. Provision for learners with high needs can potentially be offered by all further education and skills provider types. The vast majority of further education and skills provision is delivered by directly funded providers. However, published data shows that approximately 14% of funding was used to pay sub- contractors working on behalf of the directly funded provider. Page 6 of 21 Figure 2: National make-up of provision by provider type at 31st August 2020. In 2015, the government began a review of post-16 education and training institutions in England, which resulted in a series of structural changes such as mergers. On 31st August 2015 there were just over 200 general further education colleges recorded on Ofsted’s systems. Since then, nearly 100 colleges have been through a merger. This has reduced the number of colleges Ofsted reports on to nearly 170. Most outstanding colleges did not merge (25 out of 34). Around half of the colleges judged either good, requires improvement or inadequate went through the merger process. Ninety-two of the general further education colleges that did not merge have been re-inspected and 72% were judged good or outstanding. Ofsted have inspected 26 of the 46 colleges that were newly formed from a merger. Sixty-five per cent (17) were judged good or outstanding, and the remaining colleges judged requires improvement. Currently, this grade profile is lower than the original profile before the mergers, but nearly half of the merged colleges are yet to be inspected. Inspection outcomes In September 2019, Ofsted began inspecting under the Education Inspection Framework. Inspections paused in March 2020 because of the COVID-19 outbreak. Most recent Inspections Overall, 80% of further education and skills providers have been judged good or outstanding at their most recent inspection. This is a decrease of one percentage point compared with last year. Page 7 of 21 Figure 3: Overall effectiveness of further education and skills providers at 31st August 2020. The proportion of independent learning providers judged good or outstanding declined for the fourth consecutive year. In contrast, the proportion of community learning and skills providers judged good or outstanding continued to increase. Figure 4: Proportion of providers judged good or outstanding for overall effectiveness at their most recent inspection by provider type and over time. 2019/20 inspections Between September 2019 and August 2020 Ofsted inspected just over 200 further education and skills providers. The last inspection was carried out in March 2020, before COVID-19 paused inspection activity. Of those
