Knowledge Exchange and Innovation. Innovation in the curriculum We will continue to be an early adopter of new approaches to curriculum design and delivery. Working with partners, we will leverage opportunities brought about by the Edinburgh and South East Scotland City Regional Deal, in particular related to data. The college will build on our innovative partnerships with companies like Xxxxxxxx Construction and SERS to evaluate vocational courses co-designed with them. Two years ago, we integrated outdoor learning into our childhood practice curriculum and delivered this with children from local nurseries and primary schools in our forest classroom. We have further developed opportunities for outdoor learning that benefit our students, staff and stakeholders, as well as young people in nursery, primary and secondary settings. We enabled three colleges to adopt similar practice in 2020-21 and shared our learning materials and approaches with them to allow our model to be easily replicated. Now that outdoor learning has been integrated into all childhood practice courses, a second forest classroom will be created on campus in 2021-22 to accommodate demand. Further cross-college collaborations over the year between the childhood practice team and curriculum areas such as construction and engineering will enhance the learning experience of all students involved. Innovation in physical and virtual learning spaces In 2020-21, the college repurposed the ground floor of the main campus building to create a modern learning centre with flexible technology-enabled learning spaces for individual and group study. A new Student Association hub was created in the main entrance and a multi-purpose Information Point and Campus Café provide further opportunities to enhance the student experience. The final phase of this project will be completed in 2021-22 with the building entrance being extended and enhanced to offer a larger, improved and flexible circulation space for students. Also completed in 2020-21 was the extension of our engineering workshop by creating an additional floor in the existing workshop and installing equipment that was previously not available at the college. This project will be enhanced in 2021-22 by creating further workshop facilities to meet increased demand from companies to support electrical engineering apprenticeships. SFC provided additional capital funding to contribute to the implementation of these projects. The college agreed a five-year estates plan in 2021. More subst...
