Opportunities for All Sample Clauses

Opportunities for All. Each of the colleges continue to work with relevant local partners to ensure that delivery of the Scottish Government’s commitment to 16-19 year olds and 20-24 year olds is planned and delivered on a multi-agency basis underneath the overarching umbrella of the Community Planning Partnerships. Monitoring of our performance continues to be undertaken and we again achieved our targets in 2014-15. However, more detailed consideration of the 2014-15 data indicates that the growth in share of activity relating to 16-19 year old learners was only marginal (0.67%), whereas the growth in the share accounted for by 20-25 year olds was 6.1% compared to 2013-14. This is even starker when the data relating to full-time learners is considered, with a growth of just over 1,000 raw SUMs for 16-18 year olds compared to a near 5,000 increase for 20-24 year olds.

Opportunities for All. The College is committed to addressing, together with other partners, the Government’s policy for ‘Opportunities for All’. Its curriculum is primarily focused on learners from the 16-19 year old age group. In AY 2013-14 51.9% of the College’s credits were generated by learners aged 16-19 years old. The College aims to increase this proportion to 53.75% by AY 2016-17. The College’s activity relating to learners aged 16-19 years old is already above the national average. In the context of schools aiming to increase the number of pupils who stay on in 5th and 6th year, the College does not anticipate that its activity for this age group can increase much further. The College is committed to developing new partnerships with schools, university partners and employers to deliver a still broader range of vocational opportunities, further enriching the senior phase of Curriculum for Excellence, and building strong partnerships to deliver more STEM employability programmes and Modern Apprenticeships. The College also works with SDS to offer programmes which are specifically targeted at groups identified as hard to reach. In September 2014, North East Scotland College became a partner of the ‘Aberdeen Guarantees’ initiative, which aims to bring together the efforts of the public, private and third sectors to assist and enable young people to progress towards employment. The new partnership seeks to ensure that all 14 to 25-year-olds in Aberdeen City have access to quality opportunities in learning, training and work, and is set to build upon work undertaken as part of the Opportunities for All agenda. The initiative will bring together a range of approaches for youngsters who are still at school, those approaching the end of their school days, and those who have already left. It will help support these young people to move into further education, training, and employment, building on the work already done to reduce the number of unemployed young people in Aberdeen City. It will also advertise new training and work opportunities for young people and promote youth-employment related activity to young people, parents, carers, professionals and employers. School-College Links Through the School College Links Programme, North East Scotland College will continue to offer a range of courses to school pupils across the region. Included within the programme offered are SQA Skills for Work Awards, City and Guilds Awards, National Progression Awards, National Certificate cours...
