Strathmore College is delighted to announce that we have been rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted following a recent inspection.
The inspector praised the college’s commitment to personalised curriculums, the experience of our teaching staff and the quality of our links to the community.
Here’s some highlights from the report:
“Leaders have designed personalised curriculums based on learners’ EHC plans and the outcomes of assessments of what learners know and can do when they start. Staff carefully focus on individual learners’ needs and use this information effectively to enable learners to study a wide range of appropriate subjects and qualifications including GCSEs and A levels.”
“Teachers expertly demonstrate the skills and understanding they need to work with learners with high needs. As a result, learners rapidly acquire the new skills and knowledge they need to achieve their qualifications and progress to further study, paid or voluntary work or independent living.”
“Staff support learners well, including working with qualified therapists to overcome their social anxieties and mental health difficulties. As a result, learners who found it extremely difficult to participate in social activities before they started college are now confident using public transport and shopping.”
