Evaluating our performance
The team evaluation process was enhanced during 201415, with curriculum and service staff focusing on the themes
of student progress and outcomes; learning and teaching;
student engagement; support for learning; leadership and
quality culture; and the capacity to improve.
In partnership with Education Scotland and the Scottish
Funding Council, we held a comprehensive quality week in
May 2015, evaluating all ten curriculum areas. The Action
Learning Pilot project team (comprising vice principals,
quality enhancement staff and Education Scotland) worked
with each curriculum team for a full day to evaluate
performance and identify actions for further improvement.
Taking part in the day with curriculum and service staff were
employers, external stakeholders and students.
From these subject reviews the following strengths were
identified:
Excellent external engagement with employers, industry
bodies and community organisations which influences
course design, creates opportunities for students and
provides validation of provision
Where courses were offered on more than one campus,
provision across the region was standardised to provide
clear progression routes through the SQCF framework
and ensure smoother transitions for students within the
College and with other institutions
