Ofsted publishes two good practice reports for college courses

The two latest reports take a look at good practice in colleges in hospitality and catering, hairdressing and beauty therapy.

The surveys focus on effective teaching and the celebration of learners’ success. The role of college commercial premises in honing students’ technical and client care skills in a business environment is also highlighted.

A sample of colleges where provision in these areas was rated good or outstanding at their last Ofsted inspection were chosen for the survey, in order to identify those factors common to successful teaching and positive outcomes for learners.
