A Staffordshire college group has been chosen to be the West Midlands Technical and Vocational Excellence Hub as part of a major national programme to strengthen technical and vocational education across England.

Newcastle and Stafford Colleges Group (NSCG) is one of just nine regional TVE Hubs nationally, forming a key part of the Department for Education-funded Technical and Vocational Professional Development (TVPD) Programme, delivered by the Association of Colleges (AoC). Lasting for three years, the programme will support providers across England to prepare for the implementation and delivery of new post-16 technical and vocational pathways.
