East Coast College
- Like opening a door to new possibilities
- Walking through a familiar corridor only to find how unfamiliar it actually is.
- Unexpectedly useful.
- You gave me new ideas to try that I hadn’t considered in the past.
- Having no idea what to expect, this session was most interesting. Understanding individual needs requires attention.
- Opened up expansive thinking. Should make the further debate necessary easier.
- Making sure the learners can explain how and why they are doing something and how it relates to work.
- [I need to] Vocalist the things we are already doing so the learners are more aware because if you ask them what we are doing for employability, they will say ‘nothing’ so break it down into language they understand and will use.
- Learners’ ability to articulate how they have developed skills.
Runshaw College
- Possibly the best training session since I started here.
- Paradigm shift.
- The session helped me to see past the current issues and identify our current strengths. We need to work backwards and improve understanding and ‘buy in’ from students to improve placement and skill development success. Excellent session. Very motivational.
- Excellent delivery, which was exceptionally engaging. This has given me insight which I will now share with the rest of the team.
- Thought provoking and inspiring! Reflect, reflect, reflect!
- It’s made me want to reflect what I do on my own course/department, identify areas of improvement and use the top employability skills to devise motivating and engaging employability activities.
- I enjoyed the ‘write your own Ofsted report’ exercise using the grade 1 words – highlighted what I need to achieve.
- Forward with confidence.
- Creating a new path across the gap between college and employability. It has helped to understand what is ahead regarding Ofsted.
- I’ve walked across the carpet
Wakefield College
- Arrived discouraged – left uplifted.
- Today’s session was an employability dream.
- I’ve been inspired to be more creative and dream bigger.
- We need to review our scheme of work and how we deliver it.
- Shining a light on creativity in education.
- I have unlocked my creative thoughts by realising ‘I’ could make a difference.
- Today is the start of a journey.
- Thought provoking and challenging session. Will introduce some skill development project work into sessions.
- Grade 1 session.
- [I need to] Try to be more creative and let the students lead their learning more, and apply more directly to employment skills.
- Quite challenging for one who is not naturally creative.
- Snowball of exciting ideas.
- Fantastic and enthusiastic delivery.
