We have been successfully reaccredited with the matrix Standard! This means we deliver high quality information, advice, and guidance.

Last week, an assessor spent three days speaking to our staff, tutors, learners, and partners to hear about everything we do to make your learning journey great!

Here's some of what the assessor had to say in the report:
✅ Everyone feels safe in their learning with CAL, no matter the venue
✅ All staff work towards learners' best interests
✅ Information, advice, and guidance is embedded in the learning journey, making it accessible to everyone
✅ Targets are tracked well to make sure learners are making progress to achieve their goals

We are so pleased to have met all the standards in every way. Thank you to everyone who got involved and shared your experiences of learning at CAL.
