Sutton Coldfield – Care &
Childcare Faculty
The Care and Childcare Faculty is among the best in the Midlands with a strong track record. It
offers an extensive range of courses to both sixth form and adult
students, from foundation level and introductory courses to management
and higher education level (see the table below for more details).
The
Faculty prides itself on the highly qualified, specialist staff, with
professional experience in a broad range of areas, including nursing,
social work, health care and nursery childcare. Excellent teaching has
achieved outstanding results and our students have been able to gain
employment, get promoted and change careers as a result of their
qualifications.
The Faculty works closely with
employers in the Care & Childcare sectors to provide training for their
staff, in order to meet the statutory requirements and develop the
skills base. We specialise in work-based delivery of NVQs, mandatory
courses and practitioner updates. We can access funding through European
Social Fund and Early Years Development Partnership to make training
more affordable.
In a recent survey, 100% of Care
Home Managers working with JMC said that they were satisfied or very
satisfied with the quality of the training programme and would use the
College again.
