Ofsted survey inspection programme – 14-19 reforms
Blackburn College works very successfully with local schools. The provision for students aged 14 to 16 is excellent and meets the needs and interests of a range of learners. Particular strengths are the projects with vulnerable groups and those who are underachieving at school. These are having a positive impact on the number of young people staying in education, employment or training. The college shows a very strong commitment to inclusion. Learners are very positive about the high quality support and advice they receive. They also comment on how the college is flexible in meeting their needs. Clear pathways for progression are in place and contribute positively to raising learners’ aspirations.
