Strategic

Priorities

SP1

Increase the number and range of Learners

MPCT aims to increase the number of Learners at the College

through innovative marketing, networking and focused employer

and partner engagement. It will increase its footprint by targeting

the NEET demographic within large urban conurbations. MPCT will

review the curriculum, adapt to local need and demand in order to

ensure funding targets are met whilst further developing progression

routes and employability for Learners.

SP2

Enable Learners to aspire and succeed

MPCT is committed to personalising the learning programme for

all Learners through rigorous assessment within a culture of high

expectation and aspiration. MPCT aims to build on its existing

Employability framework, develop online support for learning and

increase numeracy and literacy levels of all Learners up to and

beyond level 2. Digital technology will help Learners

to achieve their goals that are tailored to their individual starting

point and needs. Throughout the learner journey, MPCT aims to

recognise and celebrate the progress and success of all Learners so

that all Learners strive to be the best they can be.

SP3

Deliver inspirational teaching and learning

MPCT’s passion is to deliver inspirational teaching and learning.

MPCT will promote equality and diversity through teaching and

learning and develop a curriculum that supports the delivery of

English, mathematics and vocational skills. MPCT is committed to

maintaining its Ofsted outstanding status by identifying curriculum

improvement strategies, new technologies and

ICT resources to support inspirational teaching, learning and

assessment. The learner is at the centre of all teaching and learning

and further developing assessment strategies will help MPCT stretch

and challenge all Learners.


SP4

Actively support employers, the skills agenda and economic growthMPCT aims to build on existing partnerships and create new relationships with relevant agencies to help increase the skills of current and new employers. This includes working with the Armed Forces, Sport and Active Leisure industry, National Careers Services as well as local and national employers. Through engaging with local partners, MPCT can ensure it is responsive to local needs and identify training requirements for skills and labour demand. MPCT will ensure employer views are considered in developing future strategies and strives to provide effective information and guidance working with local Careers and Job Centre plus.

SP5

To maintain financial health and diligence while investing in the vision Financial efficiency and diligence at MPCT will be achieved through setting, monitoring and achieving financial targets in order to maximise income and performance. Expenditure will be controlled through targeted efficiency and effective risk management strategies. MPCT aims to improve processes for financial performance through effective utilisation of resources. Solvency and debt levels will be controlled continually and income diversified to increase overall contract income.

SP6

Develop and maintain a positive learning environment to support access to progressionMPCT strives to promote a safe, healthy, sustainable and welcoming college environment. MPCT will ensure the learning environment is adapted to meet planned growth changes. MPCT welcome eco-friendly initiatives that help create a quality-learning environment. MPCT will further invest and make internal improvements as well as improving the quality of resources to support the Learners and the curriculum in order to provide an enriching learning experience.


SP7

Enhance our self critical and performance driven culture

MPCT’s self critical and performance driven culture is achieved

through successful implementation of the new common inspection

framework as well as continuous improvement of the Operational

Excellence Frameworks (OEF) and Achieving Excellence Framework

(AEF). MPCT plans to review and enhance all quality and information

procedures. Customer service at MPCT will further improve through

effective utilisation of Customer Relationship Management (CRM).

MPCT is committed to further developing its effective communication

policy and ensures learner, parent and employer views are consid-

ered. MPCT is committed to maintaining Ofsted Grade 1 status, IIP

Gold and all other nationally recognised training standards.

SP8

Enable staff to aspire and succeed

MPCT is committed to appointing high quality staff and strives to

promote opportunities in the form of internships, work placements

and apprenticeships at MPCT. Staff at MPCT are given opportunities

to gain appropriate qualifications through continuous investment and

support in

their CPD. MPCT strives to be seen as an employer of choice.

SP9

Be an outstanding and inspirational College at the heart

of its communities

MPCT will maintain relationships with key partners across all

communities within which it operates with the aim to be the partner

of choice for Military and Sport preparatory training. MPCT will build

on its effective and comprehensive provision and continue to work

with local authorities, schools and Education Funding Agency (EFA).

MPCT plans to further expand opportunities within MPCT Skills

academies. By maintaining a strong community-learning programme

working in conjunction with Motivational Learning Trust (MLT) and

the voluntary sector, MPCT is well positioned to be at the heart of its

communities in every region of the United Kingdom.

Develop Learners Physical LiteracyMPCT’s passion is to promote health and wellbeing for all Learners to support future employment. Through a structured, fun and differentiated Physical Literacy Framework, Learners will improve their confidence and self-esteem. All Learners will have equal access to physical training and experience the winning spirit through a challenging competition curriculum. The curriculum will incorporate a tracking system, which sets realistic goals and individual learning plans. MPCT Learners will develop an excellent understanding of a balanced and healthy lifestyle.

SP11

Develop Digital LiteracyMPCT’s ambition is to provide equality of access to technology for all Learners. MPCT strives to be a sustainable, inclusive and prosperous college that embraces all technology. Digital literacy skills will form part of education at MPCT whereby Learners will have access to their own learning at any time through technology. Digital Literacy at MPCT will further enhance progression opportunities through the effective use of technology. A rigorous and robust curriculum design that embeds ICT and ILT skills will also support MPCT as a digitally literate college.

SP12

Develop boys achievement ratesMPCT’s delivery model applies focus on active teaching, learning and assessment which is centred around clear target setting through competition in and out of the classroom. MPCT mentors all Learners during 1-1 reviews to facilitate SMART targets. MPCT aims to have a proactive and assertive approach to learning with high expectations as well as regular and consistent praise to raise self-belief and self esteem. MPCT develops team ethic through competition and College pride. Outstanding teaching, learning and assessment is promoted through CPD at MPCT.


It is a great pleasure and privilege to introduce this year’s Strategic Review and reflect on the highlights of our work for 2018. It has been an exceptional year for many reasons which I feel has been expertly captured within this review.

We continue to strive to improve the life opportunities of as many young people as possible. In order to achieve this, we have expanded our provision to new geographical

areas. I am delighted to report that we have had unprecedented growth of 8 new locations with 2 additional centres being relocated. This in itself constitutes the largest single period of expansion in MPCT history. This has taken our footprint from 29 locations to 37, which is a 40% growth in year. To assist with this development, I am very fortunate to be backed by an exceptionally dedicated team. The planning and preparation to facilitate the opening

Message from the

managing director


of these new centres has stretched and challenged us. However, we have ensured that each centre has been launched with the appropriately trained, high quality staff and a robust engagement and marketing plan. The new centres have been quickly adopted by their local communities and have contributed to the overall success of MPCT in year.

We have continued to live up to the mantra “No Learner leaves without a positive destination”, which has ensued in extremely

high progression rates into employment and further education. The British Armed Forces have been the largest benefactor for progression. This has resulted in 39% of our Learners moving in to employment, selecting the British Armed Forces as their career of choice. We have continued to adapt our teaching and learning to meet the diverse needs of employers. This has prompted the establishment of a specialised programme which has already made a significant impact on the number of Learners enlisting into the Royal Marines, who have the most stringent


selection criteria of all military units.

This intervention has yielded an

incredible 81% increase in the number

of Royal Marine enlistments, resulting

in them being the highest recruited

single unit from MPCT to join the

military. This is a testament to the

quality physical and academic training

at MPCT. It also demonstrates the

maturity and the ambition in which we

develop in the Learners.

This year we have also seen the signing

of the Memorandum of Understanding

with the Ministry of Defence and

Capita. This has initiated a significant

increase in high quality advice and

guidance provided by the Army. It

also means that MPCT is the provider

of choice and has passed the quality

threshold required by the MOD.

MPCT Sports provision has continued

to grow and consolidate its quality

through a restructure of people

and resources. This year has been

unprecedented, in terms of increase

to the numbers of Apprentices

which is an incredible 45% in year

growth. In addition, the curriculum

has developed with specialised

qualifications now being offered to

our partner organisations. The Sports

and Exercise College has moved its

location to better serve its Learners

and made significant strides forward in

ensuring that its Learners are able to

access high quality work placement.

The Military Preparation School (MPS)

has conducted an extensive reform,

concentrating its attention on quality,

staff training and opening new bespoke

centres. It has also undertaken an

extensive and refurbished programme

of its existing provision.

I would like to now focus on the Social

Impact that we have achieved. I firmly

believe that our role at MPCT as a

government funded organisation is to

ensure that we educate our Learners

to become productive citizens of their

communities. We must provide a

platform from which our young people

are able to become socially mobile

and contribute to the wealth of our

great nation.

I am delighted that the Motivation

and Learning Trust, (MPCT’s very own

charity) has been supported by many

of you. Centre staff have worked

with the Learners and completed a

variety of excellent challenges. All

of which has allowed the MLT to support a record number of Learners through hardship funds, making the day to day life a little more bearable, and removing some of the very real barriers for the most challenged Learners and Ex-Learners. We must also recognise the MLT’s contribution for running two highly memorable and educational World War One battlefield tours in France and Belgium. Over 150 Learners were supported by MPCT staff and MLT Trustees. All were privileged to walk in the footsteps of hero’s, learn from the history and to demonstrate their respect to our forefathers who had paid the ultimate sacrifice.

2018 saw MPCT retain our Investors in People Gold Standard Award. This signifies the importance that both myself and the Senior Leadership Team place on ensuring that MPCT is a great place to work. We have continued to invest in training and support to enable people to succeed in their roles.

Looking forward to 2019, which will be our twentieth year in developing young people. At some point next year, MPCT will have engaged, motivated and educated its 20,000th Learner since 1999. Over 90% will have progressed positively into employment or further training and we are very likely to reach 3000 enlistments into the British Armed Forces. This will be an incredible moment in time that I know we will be very proud of.

Therefore, it is fitting that this anniversary will be dedicated to quality of teaching, learning

and assessment. We will celebrate twenty years of serving the young people of Britain by honouring them by ensuring that every aspect our College improves by building on the years of outstanding work and achievement. We must remain true to the years of crafting and refining the ‘MPCT Way’. This means that our Learners will continue to be central to everything in which we do. We endeavour to ensure that the learning experience continues to be outstanding. We will continue to be recognised as an organisation which progresses its Learners to high quality destinations. Learners are stretched and challenged but also supported when appropriate. Learners, parents and communities will continue to value the impact of the training offered by MPCT. Finally, Learners must have travelled a significant distance under our leadership when they graduate.

Thank you to all who have continued to support MPCT through another excellent year. Without the dedicated high-quality team of people who go above and beyond, we would not be the organisation which we have become.

Thank you again,

Huw Lewis MBEManaging DirectorMPCT

His level of confidence and resilience is something we have not seen before. MPCT has unlocked the qualities we knew were always there, allowing him to reach his potential. He is now determined and focussed on his future career.Learner parent via annual parental survey.

Case Studies


“Bradley is disruptive, he doesn’t pay attention, he doesn’t listen, he looks out of the window constantly, he can do it, but doesn’t try, he is the class clown, he needs to try harder, he needs extra lessons!”, I was having weekly phone calls with regards to his behaviour. Yes, he has struggled in school, some subjects just don’t come easy to him.

Then there is MPCT... Well what a difference a year has made to Brad. He has absolutely LOVED every day he has spent with you guys at the college. He loves how you believe in him, don’t talk to him as if he is stupid, (his words) treat him like an equal, speak to him like an adult, show him respect, made new friends and achieved qualifications that he never thought would be within his reach. As a parent I could not ask for more for my son. He is so much happier and actually wants to come to you to learn. Brad hasn’t had an easy life, I’ve had to bring him up by myself, and

he has never had anything but respect for me. He has such a zest for life, is a very caring and compassionate young man. He embraces all challenges and grabs life by the horns.

He continues to make me proud every single day. I wholeheartedly embrace the holistic approach that MPCT take towards their students, it gives them a sense of self believe. MPCT isn’t all about the stats and results, it’s clear to see that you make it about the individual student and their well-being. Brad is living proof that with the right approach, empathy & guidance, the mind, body and soul can achieve anything it wants. Brad is now training at the Army Foundation College, Harrogate and will go on to serve with the Parachute Regiment at the end of his training. Thank you from a very proud and emotional Mum.

Charlotte, Mother of Bradley, MPC Cardiff

He has absolutely LOVED every day he has spent with you guys at the college.

Since joining Military Preparation College

Aldershot, Asmita has been a model

student in all aspects of her college life

and has acted as an ambassador for the

college over the past 6 months. She

has acted as a public speaker during

presentations and award ceremonies on

numerous occasions and she is always an

exemplary model to other students.

Asmita has worked extremely hard to

achieve her certificate in Employability

skills and has also gained her level 1

and level 2 Functional Skills in English

all whilst sitting her GCSE English exams.

She is confident that she will gain the

desired grade 4 when the results are

published this summer. Asmita has always

been exceptional at PT.

She is one of the strongest female athletes

throughout all the MPCT Colleges.

She has one Gold in the Taekwondo

National championships and Silver at the

International Tournaments.

Recently, Asmita attended the Army

Assessment Centre at Pirbright and came

away with a grade A, which is a true

reflection of all the effort she puts into

everything she does. Her 1.5 mile run time

was 1 minute 40 seconds faster than the

next runner. The interviewer at Pirbright

said she was outstanding and the best

female candidate they have had in a very

long time. Asmita is now joining the Army

Air Corps and is currently awaiting a start

date.We are exceptionally proud of her

and cannot wait to see her progress even

more. Congratulations Asmita, you are an

inspiration!

Alex progressed from MPCT to Newport

Galvanizers – he gained his fork lift licence

within his first month on the job. All paid

for by his employer.

Why did you choose to go to the Military Preparation College?“The course was really practical and

hands-on so I knew it would be a good

choice for me. I don’t like to be stuck in a

classroom all day. Doing physical training

and practical lessons was a perfect way for

me to learn.”

How did the Military Preparation College prepare you for employment?“It gave me a confidence boost which has

really helped me to make friends and have

the confidence to communicate with my

colleagues. The physical training at the

Military Preparation College has been so

important too as you have to be fit for the

job as there’s lots of physical work and

heavy lifting.”

How is your life and career progressing since you left the Military Preparation College?

“I’ve made a lot of friends here, it’s a

good environment to work in as well

because it’s practical and I love that. I’m

working towards my NVQ and I’m earning

a decent salary too. I’ve just passed my

fork lift licence too so I am constantly

developing and getting new skills to help

progress my career.”

Alex, learner from MPC Newport
