OUTSTANDING

10th March 2008

The Oldham College has officially OUTSTANDING relationships with Employers.
The Oldham College has received a truly outstanding inspection from OFSTED, who in an independent report released on Friday 1 February, awarded grade 1s, the highest award possible, in every major category of measurement – a level of success that only a handful of colleges inspected by OFSTED have ever achieved. The report highlighted the excellent relationships the Oldham College have built up with businesses.

“The college’s response to the needs of employers is outstanding. Many courses, including a highly successful dental nurse cadet scheme, are developed in liaison with employers and other organisations to meet local employment needs. Courses are often tailored to meet specific requirements. Students benefit from the industry standard resources funded through the college CoVEs. Employers arrange extensive work experience placements for students, provide visiting speakers, act as role models and offer encouragement for learners as they seek employment.” OFSTED Report February 2008
