That's all folks

The time has come, it's the end of the blog as we know and I feel fine (quote ... sort of...Michael Stipe of REM). As I am no longer directly a member of the quality team I feel I have no real input into this blog and suggest that should anyone else want to take the reigns then please feel free but I simply don't have enough knowledge to share with you all now that I am on the outskirts of Quality. It's been fun, and I hope you have enjoyed this slant on the updates I've posted but as a detriment to my twitter account (which I also can't be hooped to update) It's time to sign off. I will leave this blog running without update until Jan 5th 2011, if anyone wants the login details for it then give me a shout, otherwise it's goodnight from me and goodnight from him.

Inspection update

The TQI team has now visited and inspected 13 of our 31 academies and intend to push on with the remaining sites with some vigour and enthusiasm over the next 6 weeks before the academies start exam preparation. We have seen some outstanding teaching and learning and every academy has done it's utmost to make us feel welcome. Feedback has generally been well recieved and we have also witnessed the reactive actions to this on subsequent acdemy visits. With so many academies and trainers to inspect it is good to know that what we are doing is making a positive impact to the most important people in this process, the learners. I feel a prize maybe on the cards for the best OTL per intake. Thoughts?
