Cheshire College South and West outstanding teaching, learning, and assessment (OTLA 2) project in 2016/17 focused on using information and learning technology  to improve teaching and learning in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects, including engineering, construction and motor vehicle. The project resulted in a huge culture shift in the organisation with the observation grade profile within Engineering and Motor Vehicle increasing by 29% and cross-college by 21%. Within the key focus areas of Engineering and Motor Vehicle the level of student satisfaction increased by 5.5% to 93.3% compared to 87.8% in 2016/17.
