OFSTED has praised East Surrey College for its achievements in getting students prepared for the world of work.

In its latest report on the Redhill college, the education watchdog rated it "good".

College spokeswoman Chris Long said: "It is particularly pleasing for Redhill and surrounding areas that East Surrey College has not only sustained its 'good' status but also improved considerably to the extent that it can now boast that is has four curriculum areas confirmed as 'outstanding'."

These were: visual arts, media communication, health and social care, and early years and playwork.

Ofsted also judged leadership and management and overall effectiveness as "outstanding" and said: "Teachers focus strongly on supporting students to develop employability skills through work experience or work-related projects."

In addition it said: "Students learn and work in an inclusive environment where the staff and students are respectful of each other and feel safe".

Jayne Dickinson, college principal and chief executive, said: "The report re-emphasises the work that staff and students carry out to ensure we are using our outstanding resources to prepare students for the world of work or progression to university, ensuring they are well-equipped with the skills required within their chosen area, and that success rates continue to grow."
