This is an inadequate college

 Governance is not fit for purpose. The governing body has failed to carry out its duties effectively.  Tensions between governors and college leaders have led to a long period of unstable leadership.  The college is in significant financial difficulties. Despite this, instances of poor financial management and unwise spending of public funds are frequent.  Governors and leaders have failed to secure sufficiently rapid improvement in the quality of provision in most areas of the college.  Arrangements to improve teaching and learning are not focused effectively on evaluating learners’ progress, and have not had sufficient impact.  Leaders and managers have been slow to review the appropriateness of the curriculum for adult learners.

p.1

The college has the following strengths

 Current managers and staff have shown considerable resilience in the face of the turbulence that surrounds them, and rightly devote their efforts to trying to ensure that all learners and apprentices make good progress.  There are good practical skills development, high standards of work, and successful progression into higher education or employment in sports, public services, and the creative industries.  Teachers and specialist staff provide very good personal support to learners, especially those at risk of not completing their courses and those with high needs, and this has led to improved achievements.

p.1

Information about the college

 The college, in Buckinghamshire, has two main campuses: in Amersham, and on the outskirts of High Wycombe. It provides full-time and part-time vocational education and training across a wide range of subjects and course levels. Approximately three quarters of learners are on study programmes. Around 300 apprentices are training in a variety of occupational areas. The college subcontracts nearly half of its adult learning provision. All the local schools have sixth forms. The proportion of pupils gaining five or more grades A* to C at GCSE, including in English and mathematics, in Buckinghamshire is well above the national average. Around one third of the college’s learners come from a minority ethnic heritage.  At the time of the inspection, the interim principal was on extended leave, and an acting principal employed by an agency was in charge. The Secretary of State placed the college in administered status

p.2

What does the college need to do to improve further?

 A new governing body that is fit for purpose needs to establish a stable senior leadership team that steers the college towards its next steps.  Improve the quality of teaching, learning and assessment by: – ensuring that all managers, staff and learners have consistently high expectations of learners’ attendance, punctuality and attitudes to learning, and that steps are taken to raise standards through insisting on good work habits – reviewing quality assurance arrangements so that they are less cumbersome and focused more on helping teachers to reflect on and improve their practice, both in lessons and in their broader teaching role – ensuring that teachers use a variety of assessment techniques more purposefully to ensure that all learners and apprentices are clear about their current progress and know exactly what to do to fulfil their potential – improving the teaching of mathematics through effective staff training, both for vocational teachers

p.2

What does the college need to do to improve further?

and those teaching discrete mathematics lessons.  Evaluate rigorously the appropriateness of the curriculum offered by the college for adult learners, and ensure that provision meets local demand from employers and the community.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate

 Over a considerable period, governors have failed in their duty to improve the quality of provision at the college, to secure the college’s finances, and to develop a clear strategy for the future. Outcomes for learners and the quality of teaching, learning and assessment still require improvement. The financial viability of the college has worsened considerably. Governors cannot agree on a future strategy for the college.  Senior leadership has been characterised by instability for several years. The most recent permanent principal was at the college for 18 months before leaving in 2015. The current interim principal was on extended leave at the time of the inspection. An acting principal, employed by an outside agency, was leading the college. Several other senior and middle managers were in interim positions, some also employed by an agency rather than the college. The disharmony and dysfunction at the most senior

p.3

Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate

levels of the college have been exacerbated, if not caused, by the inability of governors to work productively and professionally, both collectively as a group and alongside senior staff members.  The current acting principal, the rest of the senior team and middle managers do their best to ensure that their primary focus is on the learner experience. This is recognised by teachers and support staff, who show considerable resilience in trying to improve provision in spite of the distractions caused by the instability at senior level. However, efforts to improve provision are yet to lead to high enough standards. Although learners in several subject areas are taught well and achieve well, this is not consistent across the college. Apprenticeship provision has improved recently, but is not yet good. Attendance at lessons, a long-standing weakness at the college, has not improved sufficiently. Learners of Pakistani heritage

p.3

Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate

continue to achieve less well than other groups.  Self-assessment and quality improvement arrangements at senior level have not been effective. Reports are too detailed, and actions not prioritised. As a result, managers do not always focus sufficiently on the key areas that required most rapid improvement. Recently, following good guidance from current leaders, curriculum managers have acquired a much better understanding of the key areas that need to improve and are beginning to tackle deep-seated weaknesses.  Arrangements to improve teaching are not as effective as they should be, and are unnecessarily cumbersome. Frequently, observers’ commentaries do not match the judgement that they make. Learners’ progress is not evaluated well enough, and poor attendance at lessons is frequently ignored. Where observers do identify areas for development, managers provide teachers with well-considered and

p.3

Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate

high-quality training. However, they do not subsequently evaluate the impact that this training is having on improving the quality of teaching, learning and assessment.  The acting principal and senior staff have improved the accountability of staff. Frequent performance review meetings ensure that managers and teachers are continually challenged to identify those learners at risk and to intervene swiftly to support them where required. Data is used very effectively to support these meetings. The majority of staff now have appraisals that celebrate success and identify further areas for improvement with appropriate actions. However, the most recent appraisal of the performance of the interim principal is far too descriptive and does not identify strategic targets for the following year.  The curriculum for adult learners is not well enough aligned to the skills shortages in the local community. Managers have worked collaboratively with the local enterprise partnership to identify and

p.3

Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate

develop appropriate courses to tackle skills shortages, for example in construction and health and social care. However, they have not yet evaluated how well these courses are delivering the skills required. A significant minority of the adult provision is subcontracted to two providers outside the region. College managers have very good oversight of the quality of this provision. The college recovery plan identified a year ago that a review of adult provision was required to ensure that the requirements of the local community are being met, but this review is yet to happen.  Staff ensure that both the college and the external settings are harmonious places in which to study and work. Behaviour is very good and learners are courteous to each other, to their teachers and to visitors to the college. Staff successfully encourage all learners to have respect for each other and their differences. The few incidents relating to inappropriate behaviour are dealt with swiftly and effectively.

p.3

Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate

 The governance of the provider Governance is inadequate. The chair and vice-chair of the governing body have, on occasion, exceeded their designated powers. Despite clear advice from clerks, governors frequently cross the boundary into operational management. Their interference in day-to-day activities hampers the work of the senior management team. Governors’ minutes are not always reliable records of meetings, against the advice of the clerk. Governors spend too much time and energy dealing with internal disputes. Governors have given due focus to the financial recovery of the college, although with little success. Budgetary assumptions have been too optimistic. Financial recovery has been further hindered by weak management of funds. For example, governors have spent funds on consultants with little discernible impact; money has been spent on external projects that have failed to come to fruition;

p.4

Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate

and invoices have not been raised for work done.  The arrangements for safeguarding are effective Managers ensure that they check qualifications and references on all staff who work at the college. They carry out appropriate criminal record checks. They ensure that appropriate arrangements are in place for staff in the subcontracted provision and for interim staff provided by external agencies. Staff, including governors, are appropriately trained in all aspects of safeguarding and their responsibilities in relation to the ‘Prevent’ duty. A majority of learners have been involved in activities to raise their awareness of the dangers of radicalisation or extremism, although managers have not evaluated fully the impact of these activities. Learners are very well equipped to keep themselves safe online and when using social media. They are safe in the college environment, but managers do not ensure that all learners wear their

p.4

Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate

identification badges when they are on site. Managers and teachers are particularly skilled at looking after the most vulnerable learners, for example unaccompanied minors who have arrived from abroad. They ensure that these learners integrate swiftly into the college community, and staff take particular care to ensure that the learners are protected from external, harmful influences.

p.4

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment requires improvement

 Teaching, learning and assessment are not consistently good across all subjects and provision types. Learners in many subjects, including the creative industries, sport and public services, make good progress because of purposeful and effective teaching. However, in other areas, too many learners make slow progress because teachers’ expectations of what learners can achieve are not high enough. Teaching is good in discrete provision for learners with high needs, and the quality of training is good for most apprentices.  Although the large majority of teachers have the requisite skills to help learners to make good progress towards their next steps, they do not always use these skills to promote high standards. Attendance at, and punctuality to, lessons continue to be poor in too many instances, although they are notably better where teaching is good. In a minority of subjects, for example business, information technology, and

p.4

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment requires improvement

health and social care, too many learners struggle to keep up with the work. Learners’ progress is hampered by a lack of ambition both by them and their teachers, and this lack of ambition is mirrored by casual attitudes to learning in a minority of lessons.  By contrast, teachers in the stronger vocational areas expect learners to give of their best throughout the year, and challenge them to go beyond the minimum requirements of their qualifications. This results in both good achievements and successful outcomes in respect of employment or higher education. For example, in theatrical media and make-up, learners benefit from a strong focus on current industrial standards in lessons, supplemented by high-quality work placements. In art and design, sport and public services, learners respond particularly well to teachers’ insistence on high professional standards.  Teachers give very good personal support to learners, including those with high needs, who face barriers

p.4

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment requires improvement

to successful learning and achievement, and as a result, most complete their courses successfully. However, not enough teachers monitor academic progress sufficiently thoroughly to help learners to identify specifically what they need to do to improve. Where targets intended to accelerate progress are set, these are too often vague or unambitious.  Learners do not make enough progress in improving their mathematical skills, either in discrete lessons or through their vocational courses, because teaching of mathematics is weak. Apprentices do not practise applying their mathematical understanding in their specific job roles sufficiently frequently. English teaching is more effective in helping most learners to improve their spelling, grammar and clarity of expression. However, when learners and apprentices make errors in their written work, these are not always highlighted by teachers or assessors.

p.4

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment requires improvement

 Learners benefit from sound advice and guidance, both on their initial choice of course and on the opportunities open to them when they complete their studies. Close links with employers in the stronger subject areas enable learners to be well informed about job opportunities as well as the specific skills and attributes for which employers are looking.  Teachers recognise their responsibility to educate learners and apprentices about the broader aspects of life in modern Britain, but many do not have the confidence to do this effectively. Apprentices’ understanding of the diversity of modern workplaces is not reinforced sufficiently. Similarly, college-based learners are not encouraged sufficiently to reflect on the complexities and challenges of the modern world. In one department, a very good display encouraged learners to think about, and participate in, the referendum on whether Britain should retain its membership of the European Union.

p.5

requires improvement

 The extent to which learners take pride in their work and develop positive attitudes to learning is not uniformly good across the college. While high professional standards and a determination to succeed characterise learners’ attitudes in many vocational areas, in others the culture is much less purposeful. Poor learner attendance and punctuality are continuing features of too many lessons, and a minority of teachers allow learners to use mobile phones or listen to music during learning sessions.  Learners benefit from a wide range of enrichment activities that complement their taught courses. These activities focus on preparing learners for work, and helping them to improve their broader social skills and understanding of life in modern Britain. For example, an enterprise academy has helped business studies learners to learn about what local employers do and the attributes of good employees. Other learners

p.5

requires improvement

have participated in a successful project aimed at highlighting a range of social issues including obsessive consumption, debt and domestic abuse.  In the stronger areas of the college, such as creative arts, sport and public services, learners work to high professional standards and benefit from substantial exposure to work experience or work-related activities. Managers have made good progress in ensuring that learners undertake work experience that is directly related to their main programme of study, although a small minority of learners have not yet had a work placement.  In the good subject areas, learners are prepared well for their next steps. They receive good advice on careers, and improve their broader communication skills as well as their subject knowledge. However, in weaker areas, learners are less well prepared for employment because they do not make enough progress in improving their basic skills or their understanding of the attributes employers are looking for.

p.5

requires improvement

 Many adult learners improve their confidence and self-esteem, as well as their job prospects, as a result of their courses. Apprentices are helped to seek promotion, with some notable successes in health and social care. Learners with high needs make good progress both in securing employment and improving their capacity to live independently.  In most respects, learners are well educated about risks to their personal safety, and their understanding of online safety is particularly good. Bullying, in all its forms, is rare, and when it occurs managers deal with it well. Further work needs to be done to ensure that learners and apprentices are fully informed about the specific risks posed by those who wish to promote extremist views.

p.5

Outcomes for learners require improvement

 The proportion of learners who complete their courses successfully is in line with that seen in similar providers, and has been constant over the last three years. Adult learners, most of whom take short courses, achieve well. In 2014/15, too many apprentices did not complete their courses on time, although this is improving in the current year.  Full-time learners on level 3 courses achieve well, and make progress in line with what would be expected, given their starting points. However, learners on courses at levels 1 and 2 make slower progress. The chances of learners achieving well depend too much on the subjects they are taking. For example, in health and social care, and engineering and business studies, too many learners do not complete and pass their courses. By contrast, in construction, and visual and performing arts and media, learners make good progress and achieve well.  Most adult learners take short programmes that are directly related to their employment, with a smaller

p.5

Outcomes for learners require improvement

number on access to higher education courses. A high proportion of adults complete their courses successfully. For example, nearly all learners taking a diploma in gas installation at a subcontractor completed and passed the course.  Managers have tackled the causes of apprentices’ poor achievements in 2014/15, and data shows that an increasing number are on target to achieve their full qualifications in the current year. Many apprentices, for example in health and social care, are developing particularly good occupational skills.  Although improving, achievements in mathematics and English courses are not yet good. Results in English are better than those in mathematics. Too few learners on GCSE courses in both subjects achieve a grade C or above. Learners’ current progress is too variable to be confident of a significant improvement in results in 2015/16.  There are few significant gaps in the achievement of different groups of learners. However, learners of

p.6

Outcomes for learners require improvement

Pakistani origin achieve less well than their peers. Learners from disadvantaged backgrounds, for example care leavers and unaccompanied asylum seekers, achieve well, as do those with high needs.  Managers assiduously collect and collate the destinations of college leavers, and this data shows that the vast majority of leavers move on to higher level courses or employment. Very few move on to an apprenticeship, and staff do not make learners sufficiently aware of this route. Managers do not yet evaluate in sufficient detail the connection between leavers’ destinations and the precise programme they followed at college.

p.6

16 to 19 study programmes require improvement

 Approximately 1,420 learners follow vocational study programmes, with around 900 taking courses at level 3, 400 at level 2 and 120 at level 1. The most popular subject areas are the creative industries, health and social care, business studies, and sport and public services.  Teaching, learning and assessment on study programmes are not consistently good. The quality of provision is good in several subject areas. However, in a minority, too many learners do not fulfil their potential because of poor attendance, lessons that are not demanding enough, and assessment and feedback that do not help learners to progress quickly enough. A minority of teachers do not have high enough expectations of what learners can achieve. At the time of the inspection, too many learners were behind with their work.  Managers have designed the curriculum well to meet the requirements of study programmes. In addition

p.6

16 to 19 study programmes require improvement

to their main programmes, learners benefit from a wide range of non-accredited enrichment activities that broaden their knowledge, improve their social and cultural awareness, and help them to prepare for employment. The proportion of learners who stay to the end of their study programme is high, and the vast majority achieve their main qualification.  All learners take appropriate English and mathematics courses, although their results are not good enough on GCSE courses in these subjects. Achievements on functional skills course have improved significantly in English and are good. Teaching in mathematics requires improvement.  Arrangements to ensure that study programme learners benefit from high-quality, relevant work experience are much improved in the current year. The vast majority of learners have work placements that are relevant to their main course, and those that do not, take part in a good range of relevant work-

p.6

16 to 19 study programmes require improvement

related activities. Managers have taken appropriate action to improve the design of programmes for learners at levels 1 and 2, and work-related activities have a higher profile.  Learners, particularly those who are at risk of not completing their courses, are supported well. They benefit from good advice during their time at college. The vast majority of learners move to a higher level of study, or to employment, when they are ready. However, too few learners are guided towards the apprenticeship route, both when they enrol at the college and when they are preparing to leave.

p.6

Adult learning programmes require improvement

 At the time of the inspection, approximately 740 adult learners were taking professional or vocational courses. Just over half of these were based at the college, with the remainder subcontracted to two main providers in London and Hertfordshire. Popular courses include accountancy, counselling, electrical engineering, gas installation, customer care and plumbing.  College leaders have plans to reduce the volume of subcontracted provision, although they have been slow to implement their plans. Although the courses offered are valuable to those who take them, they do not focus sufficiently on the needs of the communities or employers local to the college.  The quality of teaching experienced by adult learners is not uniformly good. In a minority of lessons, some learners lose interest because of the slow pace of learning. Teachers do not do enough to identify the different starting points of their learners and set them ambitious targets to achieve. Too often,

p.7

Adult learning programmes require improvement

learners receive little feedback on how they are doing and what they need to do to improve further.  Many adult learners benefit from good teaching that helps them to develop employment, professional or vocational skills. For example, learners on access to higher education courses improve their study and presentation skills. On the gas installation course, learners become adept at fitting complex pipework in domestic settings. In customer care, learners improve their problem-solving and team-building skills.  Most of the adult provision leads to good outcomes for learners, in both college-based and subcontracted provision. Learners achieve their qualifications, and this helps them move into work or higher education. Many learners who join courses when they are unemployed secure work once they are qualified, and those who are in employment achieve useful accreditation that benefits their careers.

p.7

Adult learning programmes require improvement

 Adult learners report significant benefits to their confidence and self-esteem derived from their studies, especially those who attend the college with few, if any, prior qualifications. Although teachers focus well on helping adults to develop their personal skills and knowledge, they are less successful in ensuring that learners reflect on the broader social, economic and cultural issues that they will encounter in the workplace.

p.7

Apprenticeships require improvement

 At the time of the inspection, around 300 apprentices were in training. Apprentices are divided fairly evenly between the age groups, with approximately two thirds on advanced apprenticeships and one third on intermediate apprenticeships. Most apprentices are training in health and social care, construction, electrical installation, plumbing, and business administration. The provision meets the principles and requirements of an apprenticeship.  Current apprentices are making good progress, although many will still complete their apprenticeship late because of slow progress in 2014/15, and too many have already left their programme without completing. Managers have intervened effectively to remedy some serious organisational weaknesses. For example, new assessors have been recruited, and good use is being made of an electronic tracking system to ensure that gaps in apprentices’ progress are identified and filled.

p.7

Apprenticeships require improvement

 Apprentices improve their skills and knowledge as a result of effective on- and off-the-job training. For example, childcare apprentices showed sophisticated skills in working with children who have disability. In construction, apprentices improve their hand and tool skills, and carry out research into the benefits of energy efficiency and the application of current legislation.  The vast majority of apprentices continue with the same employer at the end of their programme, with some benefiting from promotion, particularly in health and social care. A small minority progress to higher level study, including foundation degrees and nursing.  Links with employers are good, and help to ensure the relevance of both the training and the apprenticeship routes offered. The college is the main provider of training for the local NHS, providing training in both health and social care and business administration. In conjunction with employers,

p.7

Apprenticeships require improvement

managers have developed specialist camera and technical qualifications for the film industry. However, employers do not have enough input into reviewing and commenting upon the skills that individual learners are developing in the workplace.  Although most apprentices achieve the English and mathematics qualifications that are an essential part of their programme, trainers and assessors do not do enough to make sure that apprentices practise these skills in the workplace.  Trainers and assessors do not do enough to help apprentices to learn about the broader aspects of the workplace, such as the diverse needs of customers in a multicultural setting, or how to cope with conflict at work. Although staff have been trained in the requirements of the ‘Prevent’ duty, they do not check apprentices’ understanding of the potential threat of radicalisation, grooming or exploitation.

p.7

Provision for learners with high needs is good

 At the time of the inspection, the college was funded to educate 63 learners with high needs. The learners are supported by both college staff and experienced practitioners from partner organisations. Nearly all learners are in discrete provision. Each learner has an individual learning package that includes vocational training, English, mathematics, independent living and employability sessions. Most learners progress to higher levels of study, or benefit from improving their ability to live independently.  Learners benefit from good teaching, which helps them to make real progress in developing a broad range of skills and improving their confidence. Teachers challenge learners to make the most of their abilities, and as a result, learners build on their natural talents as well as acquiring new skills. For example, in music technology, a group of learners learned to negotiate their membership of bands.

p.8

Provision for learners with high needs is good

 A strong focus on improving independent living skills helps learners to learn about coping with everyday life. For example, learners learn to source ingredients, use a budget and cook. Learners are proud of their achievements, for example, making cakes and selling them in the staff canteen. In most sessions, teachers diligently help learners to improve their English and communication skills.  Teachers do not always check that learners have fully understood one stage of a learning session before moving on to the next, which slows the progress of a minority of learners. Teachers do not always check spelling and punctuation and learners’ work often contains repeated mistakes.  Learning support assistants provide discreet, encouraging and effective support. They hold back from intervening too soon to help learners, or providing ready-made solutions. Support workers provide excellent support for learners in the workplace, and this is particularly appreciated by workplace

p.8

Provision for learners with high needs is good

supervisors.  The initial assessment of learners includes the careful identification of specific learning needs, such as dyslexia, and as a consequence, learners receive specialist help which speeds up their progress towards their learning goals. Learners benefit from a wide range of professional support, including speech and language therapy.  Education, health and care plans are thorough and include a good range of achievable steps which are reflected in learning plans. Teachers use these well to monitor learners’ progress and help them achieve their learning goals. Partnership working with local authority representatives, external support agencies and parents is very good and ensures that learners’ progress and welfare are monitored closely.  Most learners benefit from periods of work experience, although teachers do not record the progress they make in the workplace effectively.
