Our Strategic Ambition 2014/15

This document outlines Blackburn College’s mission statement and our key focus for 2014/15 onward

Aspiring, innovating and achieving together


Foreword from the Chair of the Corporation Board

Sir Bill TaylorThe role of the Corporation Board is to

determine the strategic direction and mission

of the College in consultation with College

management and staff.

During 2013/14 we started a new phase with

the appointment of Dr Thomas Moore as

our Principal and Chief Executive and other

significant changes in senior professional

personnel. The Strategic Plan for 2014/15 is the

end product following thoughtful deliberation

by the Corporation Board on how to best

position the College, to ensure it continues as

that beacon of excellence for our students and

the community.

Through this Strategic Plan, we intend that

the College will remain in a strong position,

educationally and financially, for the years ahead

steered by a critical but supportive Corporation

Board and the continued commitment and

support of our students, our staff and our local

community.

I commend this plan to you.

Strategic Ambition 2014/15

Foreword from the Principal and Chief Executive

Dr Thomas J MooreHaving been in post at the College for just under

a year, this is my first Strategic Plan and one

which, I believe, will place the College in a strong

position to sustain its excellence in teaching,

learning, assessment and support but also

position the College to respond positively to the

challenges ahead.

The public sector remains under budget pressure

and changes in the external landscape facing

Colleges are also likely to have an impact on the

sector. In the face of these challenges, Blackburn

College will remain one of the best in the country

through the plans we have put in place. The

Strategic Plan is also very clear that Blackburn

College remains outstanding due to its staff, who

deliver the curriculum and support for, and with,

our students year after year. Our commitment to

the College staff team is rightly placed within its

own Ambition Statement for 2014/15.

I look forward to the year ahead and with a

shared commitment and passion from staff

and governors, we will to achieve the ambition

statements set out in this Strategic Plan.

Dr Thomas J Moore

Principal and Chief Executive

Our Ambition: Students

At Blackburn College students will continue

to be our priority. The College has an

individualised approach to every student

throughout their journey at the College.

Equality, diversity and inclusion are key drivers

which inform our teaching, curriculum and

support services. Discrimination is tackled

through innovative strategies. There is a shared

commitment and determination that students

will receive outstanding teaching and support to

develop, achieve and progress.

Our employer engagement strategy ensures

we understand and respond to local, national

and international training needs as we shape

and design our curriculum. The College

will continue to develop sustainable routes

through the levels to provide progression to

higher education and employment. Collecting

and using destination data will inform the

curriculum and maximise job outcomes

throughout our provision.

Study Programmes in Further Education and our

Higher Education Provision will see a focus on

employability and social enterprise which will

create students equipped to contribute positively

now and in the future. The College has assessed

its position in readiness for the requirement for

English and Maths to be an essential component

for all students without a GCSE A-C and has put

focused provision in place to respond to the

differing needs of students.

Ambition Statement One

Deliver outstanding teaching, learning, assessment andsupport to our students, enabling them to progress

positively to further study or employment

The College aims to progress positively through

the scrutiny stage of the Foundation Degree

Awarding Powers process in 2014/15, allowing

the College to provide higher education bespoke

to student need and employer demand.

The College has high expectations of all its

students and staff and expects all lessons to be

good or outstanding. The College will focus

on a positive approach to the enhancement of

teaching, learning and assessment (to include

a blended learning model), highlighting and

disseminating best practice and supporting

areas requiring it through staff development.

The College’s tutorial and guidance offer

will continue to ensure consistently high

expectations and the achievement of learner-

specific targets, within the context of the local

issues facing young people and adults.

The College’s safeguarding team will continue

its work across College to support young people

and vulnerable adults. It aims to prevent, protect

and assist in resolving issues in partnership with

external services and the Local Safeguarding

Board.

Our Ambition: Partnerships

Ambition Statement Four

Work in partnership with others for the benefit of Blackburn College, Blackburn with Darwen, Lancashire and beyond

The College is committed to its wider Corporate

responsibilities within Blackburn with Darwen,

Lancashire and beyond. This commitment will

manifest itself during 2014/15 with increased

partnership activity with colleagues from a

range of agencies external to the College, other

education and training providers and employer

engagement re-focused on meeting the needs

of employers and the economy.

The College believes firmly that education is

fundamental to transforming lives, as is evident

in the College’s mission statement. We see

the outcomes of education as threefold: the

development of knowledge and skills of value

to the students, and to the community and

the country, both now and in the future; the

development in our young people and adults of

a desire and capacity to contribute to a cohesive

community as good citizens; and the fostering

of independent thinking and development of

‘curious minds’.

The College vision is for young people and

adults to achieve their full potential regardless

of their background or starting point. Raising

the aspirations of individuals is key to raising

the aspirations of a community. In our view

excellence in teaching and learning is the

route to that achievement and we believe in

an entitlement within the community to an

excellent teaching, and learning experience

which meets their individual needs.

As an outstanding College, we have a key role

in delivering a high standard of education and

training for the young people and adults within

our community and are keen to support other

institutions and to share best practice and also to

be informed by best practice elsewhere.

With this vision in mind, the College will apply

to establish an Academy Sponsorship Trust

during 2014/15. We would expect to drive up the

standard of education in any school we engage

with as a sponsor, and help to raise aspirations

of the young people in our area through close

links with our further and higher education

provision. Building progression routes from

School to College for those who would seek

to attend Blackburn College and easing the

transition process, can only be of benefit to the

young people within Blackburn with Darwen.

The College will provide a comprehensive

transition strategy for young people, working in

partnership with schools, to guide and support

applicants into College following Year 11. The

College will also continue its supportive work to

deliver elements of the national curriculum at

Years 10 and 11 for those young people for whom

school might no longer be the most appropriate

environment.

The College’s partnership ambition will also

see increased collaborative work with other

education and training providers and through

14


effective joint working we will seek to take

action to meet the needs of our local community

and to share and learn from each other from

a position of mutual respect. The College will

seek to engage positively with the Lancashire

Local Enterprise Partnership to drive the skills

development strategy across Lancashire.

The College’s employer engagement strategy has

seen active positive progress in working closely

with employers and their networks, not only

through the curriculum teams but also through

the College’s business engagement team. We are

developing a better understanding in order to

respond to their skill needs now and in the future.

The College’s commitment to entrepreneurship,

work experience and social enterprise will

create students who are in a strong position to

contribute to the workforce and find meaningful

employment. Appropriate advice and guidance

will continue to be provided to employers on the

training options available to them including, but

not limited to, work placements, traineeships,

supported internships, volunteering,

apprenticeships and foundation degrees. The

College will also continue its positive work with

Job Centre Plus to support a significant number

of people through its Skills for Work and Sector

Based Work Academies.

The College’s strong relationship with Blackburn

with Darwen Borough Council will continue,

working together as equal partners, for the

benefit of the local and wider community. This

will be illustrated by the joint capital project of

the new Blackburn Sport and Leisure Centre

which will open in 2014/15.
