About Bradford College
Based predominantly in the heart of the City of Bradford, Bradford College is one of the largest education and training providers in the region.
The College is steeped in history having begun its story over 190 years ago as the Bradford Mechanics Institute. Whilst the College you see today looks very different, we still hold on to these technical and vocational traditions as we seek to support the education and training needs of our local communities and support our local employers by developing their future workforce.
As a college supporting the education and training needs of a major city, we have a diverse curriculum offer which encompasses a wide range of vocational qualifications, apprenticeships, T-Levels and community courses along with the delivery of both undergraduate and postgraduate degrees. Our courses are career-focused and we aim to give each of our students a head start in the industry they aspire to work in.
Through our provision, we are privileged to support around 20,000 people with their education. All of this would also not be possible if not for the dedication of a team of almost 1,000 staff, each of whom truly embodies our organisational values of respect, inclusivity, trust, inspiration and aspiration.
We are proud of the quality of provision we deliver. In our last Ofsted inspection in November 2021, we were graded as ‘Good’. We were delighted with this outcome as a demonstration of our growth and improvement but as an organisation, we have a constant focus on improvement and ensuring we are providing outstanding outcomes for our students.
Our achievements to date are due to the high-quality, dedicated staff and senior leadership team who truly understand the local area and our students. We are also fortunate to have a committed and experienced Board to help challenge, scrutinise and support us as we continue on our journey. To this end, we now seek to appoint a new member to our Board who will also be invited to join our Audit Committee.
Peridot Partners and Bradford College are, together, committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and our client expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced DBS check and satisfactory references before any final offer can be made.
