A training organisation for adult learners has been told it 'requires improvement' by inspectors. The Training Brokers (TTB), in Salford, is an independent learning provider funded by the Greater Manchester Combined Authority.
At the time of the Ofsted inspection in October, there were 80 people on its courses. Sixty-four learners were studying the level two passport into schools programme, eight were on the level one introduction to youth work certificate and eight were studying the level two award in youth work principles.
The courses are provided at a range of community venues across Greater Manchester. TTB's overall effectiveness was judged to be 'requires improvement' and received the same grading in categories of quality of education, personal development, leadership and management and adult learning programmes. For behaviour and attitudes, it was deemed to be 'good'.
