Listening to our Stakeholders
We welcome and encourage both positive and negative feedback as it tells us how we are doing. We consult with our stakeholders in many different ways:
- We consult with customer schools, contracted training providers and young people by means of an annual survey conducted at the end of each school year.
- We listen to school representatives at two series of meetings - Vocational Skills Programme (VSP) schools liaison and curriculum managers
- We listen to training provider representatives at a series of VSP Supplier Support meetings and by contract compliance and quality monitoring visits.
- We talk informally to students on placement.
Feedback received this year
- We received 16 comments relating to 3 systems. As a result we are:
- revising the pupil referral process to streamline this in readiness for block referrals for the next academic year
- revising the systems and timescales relating to the tender and contracting process
- continuing to meet regularly with schools to improve the quality of education provided
- We received feedback from 23 contracted training providers complimenting the realtionship with both the 14-19 Team and Extended Curriculum Team and the levels of communication and support received.
