Student Retention and Learner Success‌ Sample Clauses

Student Retention and Learner Success‌. Borders College has a history of delivering student retention and learner success at rates above the national average. A Learner Success Strategy, which sets out a wide range of approaches to improving learner outcome, is having a positive impact. Our Achievement Coach role, which operates in all portfolio areas, is there to address quickly any issues that may impact on success. The students most at risk are monitored against risk factors to gauge their performance and where the risk profile increases, the Achievement Coaches are there to intervene. This enhanced approach is having a positive effect, with learner success rates improving significantly for 2017/18.

We identify our 10 least successful programmes in terms of success rates and through our Courses for Concern programme. The Assistant Principal and VP Curriculum & Student Services review the progress of the agreed action plan, drawn up in a meeting with the Principal in September, on a 6 weekly basis. We carry out Performance Reviews for all our senior managers with a responsibility for delivery. This focusses on progress against the targets set and identification of additional support when required. We also share good practice through capturing what our 10 best performing programmes are doing and sharing this with their peers. We have invested in, and will continue to develop our use of, Advantage software. It provides us with access to live data that will offer front line staff and managers information on individual student and group progress so that we monitor progress and intervene where necessary. Our staff development and small capital investment resource has focused on digitally enhancing the learner experience. We are starting to see greater use of mobile devices and online technologies to engage students. Significant investment is required if we are to realise our ambition to providing flexible and inclusive learning opportunities. The College carried out a restructure of curriculum middle managers replacing Programme Leaders, who had a substantial teaching commitment, with non-teaching management roles. These new Curriculum and Learning Manager (CLM) roles commenced at the start of academic year 2018/19. This has substantially increased our management capacity to improve learner success further.
