Helping you learn new skills and develop existing ones
SGS College serves Bristol, South Gloucestershire, Gloucestershire & the surrounding areas from our 6 campuses. SGS Horizon opened in January 2023 and is a dedicated apprenticeship campus providing training to the construction sector.
In our recent Ofsted visit, they stated apprentices were well supported by staff, teachers set high expectations & role model professional behaviours & learners develop positive attitudes towards their learning. Apprentices make sense of their new learning & build confidence in their new knowledge & skills & teachers build apprentices’ skills sequentially to increase the level of accuracy & speed of work. The sub-judgement of Skills through the work we do with stakeholder partnerships & employers was Strong.
