Collaboration

 Closer partnerships between the high schools, the college of further education and work-based learning providers are already contributing to a more consistent approach to planning the 14-19 curriculum.
 
To ensure that all 14-19 learners on the island can access a wide range of provision, we have created 2 curriculum hubs to ensure a wider choice of subjects can be offered on the island in line with their travel to learn arrangements.

These are:
 

 
The Isle of Wight College, Pupil Referral Units, Special School and work based learning providers will be fully involved with both hubs.

All 14-19 provision is developing across the island and learners can assess this through the “14-19 Directory of Collaborative Provision”

Transport arrangements have been supported by a post 16 transport pathfinder allowing the purchase of mini buses for each High School, College and Special school. With the addition of “round robin” buses within the hubs and a voucher agreement for all learners on the island main carriers, transport issues have therefore been minimised.
 
Progression for young people with learning disabilities have been enhanced by co-operative ventures between special schools, high schools and the college.
