Greene’s “exceeds expectations” in latest ISI report
“The college exceeds expectations.”
What are ISI reports?
The ISI (Independent Schools’ Inspectorate) is an approved Educational Oversight body authorised by the Home Office to inspect privately funded education colleges. An ISI report provides objective and reliable reports on the quality of colleges, and by placing reports in the public domain, makes this information available to students, Government, and the wider community.
Greene’s ranked “exceeds expectations”
Acting Principal Katja Behrens confirms that the inspection, conducted in October 2023, found that the college’s performance was ranked as “exceeds expectations”, with inspectors maintaining that the college continues to display excellence in all assessed categories. This continues the ranking achieved in 2021.
Acting Principal Katja Behrens spoke on the report: “I am delighted to confirm that the recent inspection found that the college maintained its level of excellence. I wish to extend my gratitude to all staff, tutors, and students for this outstanding result.”
Deputy Principal Jane Hajny added: “This [highest] level achieved is a result of the efforts of our entire college body, from tutors to students to staff.”
What did the report find?
The report assessed four primary areas:
-
- The quality of the curriculum, teaching, and learners’ achievements
- Students’ welfare, including health and safety
- The effectiveness of governance, leadership, and management
- The resolution of the last report’s action and recommendation points
In each area, Greene’s exceeded expectations (i.e. achieved the highest grading possible).
