“The adult programme meets local needs effectively. This is particularly so for the large community ESOL provision and the range of courses that promote employability skills relevant to Leicester’s diverse communities. Adult learners are highly motivated and make good progress in vocational courses. For example, accountancy learners demonstrate analytical development of skills and knowledge related to their preferred choice of career.”
