Educational visits in further education colleges - autumn 2022 insights
This report summarises the findings from link inspector engagement visits and calls
made to further education colleges between October and December 2022 with a
focus on educational visits. The report is based on the information discussed during
face-to-face and online meetings with senior leaders, middle leaders, visit leaders,
teachers, and support staff. The focus for discussions was the current picture in
relation to educational visits, including considering how colleges have responded to
the recommendations that came out of the Estyn thematic Review of education visits
policies in further education (Estyn, 2015). Colleges were also asked about the
impact of educational visits for learners and also asked to share any further
challenges or considerations.
