🥳 It's official - we've been awarded TEF Silver once again for our higher education provision!
This means that the TEF panel assessed our student experience and student outcomes as ‘very high quality’. We are also very proud that several areas were assessed as ‘outstanding’, including our 'commitment to prepare students to meet local skills challenges through a technical and highly vocational curriculum’ and the learning environment and academic support we offer.
@Jon R., Deputy Principal and Executive Lead for HE at NCG said it is "a fantastic achievement which recognises the outstanding work of colleagues across NCG to provide high-quality higher technical education in collaboration with industry and in response to and readiness of the needs of the communities and economies served by our colleges.”
This achievement comes at the end of a milestone year for our HE provision. This year we have:
🎓 Celebrated 10,000 graduates in 10 years from Newcastle College University Centre
📜 Became the first further education provider to be granted the power to develop and award degrees indefinitely.
💸 Continued an £8million investment programme into our higher education facilities, which will continue over the next three years.
