London, 23rd February 2018: Central Bedfordshire College has won the ‘Professional services team of the year initiative’ award at the annual Tes FE Awards 2018.

The TES FE Awards celebrate and reward the dedication, expertise and hard work of the individuals and teams who make a significant contribution to improving the skill levels of young people and adult learners.

These awards are a prestigious and exciting opportunity to recognise achievement in further education, and Central Bedfordshire College are incredibly proud of their Student Services Team for their success as ‘Professional Services Team of the Year 2018’.

Creating an environment where students feel safe, supported and empowered has been at the heart of the work of Central Bedfordshire College’s student services team.

The wraparound services of the team have helped to deliver significant and tangible improvements in student performance – with 96 per cent of graduating students progressing to higher education, apprenticeships or employment.

A collaborative approach between the student services, academic and senior management teams has resulted in a culture where 94 per cent of students reported feeling safe at College. There has also been a 3 per cent drop in reported cases of bullying since last year (from to?).

The student services team has tackled some difficult topics by providing a safe and empowering forum for debate, contributing to a culture of understanding and tolerance.

The team uses its extensive local knowledge to help to protect students from radicalisation, in accordance with the government’s Prevent strategy, and a social mobility strategy ensures that equality of opportunity is promoted throughout the college.

Achievement gaps between different student groups have been eliminated through careful monitoring and appropriate interventions, with more students now succeeding at higher levels of achievement.

The judges felt that the college’s entry was “very powerful”. “The importance of the service that the team provides is clear through the range of evidence provided,” they said.

Central Bedfordshire College are ecstatic that the support provided by the Student Services Team has been recognised on a National level by TES FE and extends thanks to all of those who consistently strive to create and maintain an exemplary environment for local students to enjoy.
