  • We have formed a new working partnership with front-runner housing association ‘Flagship Group’, who have announced they will be sponsoring one of our pre-apprenticeship programmes. @_flagshipgroup have made a commitment to us in order to build a strong talent pipeline for their specialist repairs and maintenance company RFT Services, which is a subsidiary of, and sits under Flagship Group. The well-known housing association accepted our proposal to sponsor the Pre-Apprenticeship Maintenance Operations Level 2 course; giving students an opportunity to progress to an apprenticeship with them in Plumbing, Electrical or Carpentry. As part of the collaboration, Flagship Group have agreed to purchase all PPE for students on the course, support with donating building materials, support with work experience and contribute to delivering sessions for the students. Phil Stittle, Executive Director for Business Development at the said: “We are thrilled to be partnering with Flagship Group to offer students real life industry exposure and support throughout their first year at West Suffolk College. Applicants applying for the course will have a fantastic opportunity to progress and obtain a career at one of the leading employers in the East of England. This type of combined employer-education model is something we are proud to be a part of and something that we feel will have real impact for both young people and employers for years to come.” Tomas Lloyd, Apprenticeship Delivery Manager for Flagship Group said: “This fantastic opportunity allows education and industry to work seamlessly together to develop and train the RFT workforce of the future. Upon successful completion, students will be guaranteed an interview by RFT with the view of progressing into paid employment via an apprenticeship." The team are now looking to recruit students to start the new course from September.

  • Together with our consortium members, we have formally been announced as one of the Department for Education’s (DfE’s) Edtech Demonstrators, as part of a bid to support teaching and learning in other institutions. The Ed-Tech Demonstrator Programme was announced last year as a £10 million DfE initiative to boost peer-to-peer support on the effective use of technology, and includes a network of schools and colleges across the country. The programme has now been tailored to help schools and colleges provide education remotely. The remaining consortium members are: Suffolk Academies Trust (comprised of Abbeygate Sixth Form College and One Sixth Form College), CMAT (Cambridge Meridian Academy Trust) and ConnectEd Teaching School Alliance – led by Barrow Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School. The Demonstrator Schools and Colleges will provide professional development, initially focussed on supporting the effective delivery of remote teaching practices to schools and colleges across the country – predominantly targeting those in most need of support. Led by us, the consortium will assist the DfE in supporting schools in the local area to provide support when it comes to engaging with students using digital tools and online content.

  • 💙 Congratulations to our healthcare hero apprentice Stacie Wallace, winner of our Outstanding and Resilient Apprentice of the Year During Covid -19 Award. During the current outbreak of Covid-19 Stacey was instantly deployed from day surgery to ICU/main theatre, her working hours changed from 9-5 to nights and weekends and included a 5-week rotational shift which were long hours. Here, she embraced the training and completed all mandatory training, although as a young mum she had many personal fears, she has remained professional and compassionate to the end and has remained engaged fully with me to ensure she completes her EPA during this challenging time.
