This Equality & Diversity Partneship project undertook research into factors affecting academic under-achievement by identified ethnic groups in post-16 further education in the Swindon area and recommended actions to address these. The principal focus was on 16-19 year old minority ethnic students studying for long courses. The aim was to enable the colleges to improve student experience and success at college.
The resources included are:
• Final report
• Flyer
• Going to College project resource

This project aimed to use the Equality North East Equality Standard to assist partner learning providers within a cluster to embed equality and diversity and meet Common Inspection Framework Requirements. The cluster were provided with the advice, tools and techniques to embed equality and diversity within their people strategies alongside receiving information about learner positive action and good practice within and outside the region.

This resource comprises the report and resources developed by the Equality and Diversity Partnership Project led by Boston College in 2009-10. The project aimed to identify young learners across Lincolnshire who are in receipt of EMAs/ALGs or who live in post-coded areas identified as areas of disadvantage. The team also aimed to engage with them as “experts” through electronic and paper based surveys, one-to-one interviews and focus groups about the barriers to success and effective intervention strategies.
