Important Notes
Since the Higher Education Review report on Wigan and Leigh College was published, the review team can now confirm that the College, working in partnership with the student body, has satisfactorily addressed the review team's initial recommendations relating to the originally negative judgements on the quality of student learning opportunities and enhancement, through the action planning process. In December 2015 the judgements were amended from 'does not meet UK expectations' for learning opportunities, and 'requires improvement to meet UK expectations' for enhancement to 'meets UK expectations' in both cases.
In response to the findings highlighted in the Higher Education Review report, the provider published an action plan.
