Values and Vision

Stafford College aims to provide an excellent education for all students. They should behave in a respectful manner towards every person they come across. Pupils get an understanding at the college of what it will be like to work in the real world. Students are pushed to be tolerant of other religions in the local community. The college believes every pupil should work hard and push for diversity. The successes of the students are celebrated by everyone in the college.  

Ofsted report

“The findings from self-assessment are broadly accurate; staff and managers have a good understanding of what the college needs to improve. Students develop good practical skills in a range of trades as a result of good practical teaching in college, supplemented by good on-the-job coaching in the workplace for apprentices. All students receive good support. Recent changes to supporting study programme students, including their access to personal tutors, progress coaches and learning mentors, are enabling managers to identify and support students at risk and support students’ progress. This is helping to rectify the variability in the quality of student profiles. Students understand and value the different kinds of support available to them.”
