This report is one of a suite of reports by Education Scotland commissioned by the Scottish Further and Higher Education Funding Council (SFC) to evaluate provision in colleges for supporting learner success. Colleges should act on the recommendations contained in these reports. College inspectors will monitor action towards implementation of these recommendations as part of their normal dialogue with colleges and will wish to discuss issues arising from thematic aspect reports during regular college visits. This report is based on work carried out over a two-year period from September 2014 to June 2016. This time frame has helped take account of rapid change within the post-16 sector over that period. It has also enabled tracking of the progress and destinations of a sample of learners through their college experience and into their next stage of learning or employment. Their reflections on their college experiences have helped inform this report. In preparing this publication, inspectors and associate assessors visited a sample of five colleges, detailed in appendix 1 of this report. Each college in the sample was visited twice during year one of the fieldwork and once during year two. Inspectors and associate assessors discussed relevant issues with senior and middle managers, teaching and support staff and learners. The team carried out a small number of lesson observations and looked at relevant documentation. The views of stakeholders were obtained through analysis of documents, face-to-face interviews and telephone discussion. Reviewers also drew on the findings of other Education Scotland external review reports and aspect task findings. The methodology included a review of key literature covering employability research and policy. One of the key issues for this report is whether colleges are carrying out sufficiently good work in developing employability in learners even if they do not all have formally articulated strategies, policies or learner entitlements in place. Appended are: (1) Colleges Visited During the Report Fieldwork; and (2) Glossary of Terms.
