Direct learning support in colleges: a survey of current practice

Many adults and 16- to 18-year-old learners in colleges need extra help to enable them to reach their full potential in their studies. In 2005/06 inspectors from Ofsted and the Adult Learning Inspectorate (ALI) evaluated the quality of the literacy, numeracy and language support learners receive in 29 colleges across the country. The colleges were selected because they had received good or better grades for their Skills for Life provision in a previous inspection.

Writing in English as an additional language at Key Stage 4 and post-16

The Advanced Bilingual Learners’ Writing Project was commissioned as part of an Ofsted study of support for students at Key Stage 4 and post-16 who spoke English as an additional language. The research investigated the writing skills of those who, although at an advanced stage of formal education, may be underachieving in English.
