      • Ofsted Outstanding

      Following an inspection early in 2020, Cronton Sixth Form College has been given the highest possible rating by Ofsted who have judged the college to be OUTSTANDING. This makes us the only Further Education College in the North West to achieve OUTSTANDING under the new Ofsted Education Inspection Framework (EIF).

      In the report OFSTED praised:

      Our students:

      • “Learners and apprentices are exceptionally well motivated and demonstrate extremely positive attitudes to learning”
      • “Relationships between learners, apprentices and their teachers and assessors are excellent”
      • “Learners and apprentices develop their confidence, resilience and strong independence skills”

      Our teachers:

      • “Staff at all levels have high aspirations for their learners and apprentices. Consequently, learners and apprentices who study here do exceptionally well”
      • “Teachers and assessors help learners to achieve high grades and produce work consistently to a very high standard”
      • “Teachers and trainers are well qualified and benefit from high-quality professional development that develops their subject knowledge and expertise”

      Enrichment:

      • “Learners on advanced level programmes greatly benefit from the ‘prestigious universities’ programme that facilitates successful applications to universities. Consequently, most progress into higher education with a significant number going to the best universities”
      • “Learners experience a wide range of work experience opportunities and, as a result, they develop higher-level interpersonal skills”
