We are committed to putting excellence at the heart of everything we do.
This means we are continually striving to develop and maintain outstanding partnerships and student outcomes. We expect high quality provision which responds to the needs of students, local communities, regional economic agendas and government priorities. This is why we are focussed on extending and diversifying the range of courses delivered to engage new and niche markets; to widen participation, and respond to emerging needs. As part of this strategy we are deeply committed to developing two way partnerships with high quality, low risk supply chain subcontractors to deliver only the best education and training.
Our subcontractor policy sets out our standards and expectations and is key to maintaining a successful ongoing relationship.
