What does the provider need to do to improve?
- Leaders should ensure that employers are routinely involved in the planning of on- and off-the-job training and reviews of their apprentices to support apprentices to make the progress of which they are capable.
- Leaders should identify what apprentices already know and can do at the start of their programme and use this information to ensure they plan a challenging and individualised curriculum.
- Leaders should review the curriculum for learners with high needs on the ‘choices’ programme to ensure it is challenging and prepares them for future learning or work.
- Leaders should ensure that they put appropriate actions in place to ensure learners with low attendance attend college regularly.
What does Loreto College need to do to improve further?
- Take action to improve success rates on the very small minority of lower-performing advanced courses and the GCSE A* to C English and mathematics pass rate.
