  1. FE SECTOR ENGAGEMENT IN THE NUCLEAR ISLAND 19 November 2010

  2. SOME FACTS AND FIGURES • 902 14-16 year olds • 3,700 16-18 students • 16,850 total student population • 1,248 apprentices • 700 HE • 1,051 staff (696 FTE) • £37m budget

  3. KEY ACHIEVEMENTS • Designated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted • Beacon Status College. Winner of 13 Beacon Awards including Employer Engagement • Outstanding pass rates across the curriculum • Training Quality (Employer Responsive) Standard • Matrix Standard Accredited for Information, Advice and Guidance • Working with over 80 schools • Working with over 2,500 employers • Working closely with Sector Skills Council/National Skills Academies – Nuclear, Logistics, Textiles, Creative and Cultural, Construction Skills and Automotive Skills

  4. NUCLEAR INDUSTRY • South West Hub of the National Skills Academy Nuclear • Working with EDF/BE on new build developments and with the NDA and Magnox South on the decommissioning agenda • Working with employers within the supply chain including Radwise, Doosan Babcock, Rolls Royce • Foundation Degrees in Nuclear Decommissioning/Engineering validated by UCLan • NVQs Radiation Protection and Nuclear Decommissioning at Levels 2 & 3 over 100 candidates from across the South West and beyond • Radiation Safety Practice Stage One • Award for Nuclear Industry Awareness (ANIA)

  5. THE New Build Workforce Challenge Key points • Peak workforce of 5000 people in mid 2015 – Similar scale to London 2012 • EDF Energy require a large proportion of workforce to come from Somerset • Somerset small, traditional construction economy • Somersettraditionally strong in craft based trades / agriculture and engineering trades (good fit for conversion) • Skills provision in Somerset geared towards traditional construction trades • No comprehensive or ‘Demand Led’ intervention training within the 90 minute commute area • Setting out, light plant, slinger, signaler, steel fix, steel frame, cladding require outdoor training space and ‘cut and fill’ facility • Experience on London2012 has demonstrated that ‘Demand Led’ training delivered in close proximity to the site is a key element in delivering local people into work.

  6. CONSTRUCTION SKILLS CENTRE • Dedicated team working with EDF Energy on development of Construction Skills Centre • Centre concept integrates and optimises our existing facilities within Bridgwater College and identifies need for an additional facility for Plant and outdoor related training • Experience has shown need for proximity and creation of skills ‘marketplace’ • Large external training area minimum of 8 acres, training opportunities will include, Plant training CPCS, Steel Fixer, Formworker training • Complemented by large internal space, serviced by 10 ton crane, supported by training and IT rooms – CSCS, CCNSG training.

  7. CONSTRUCTIONARIUM Opportunity to expand Construction Skills Centre to host Constructionarium Key benefits • Proximity to first Nuclear New Build • Access to welfare, teaching facilities and land • Existing relationship with EDF Energy and supply chain • Opportunity to broaden access to both FE and HE • Opportunity to use FE links into Schools topromote STEM • Potential to use for practical R&D linked to Hinkley C • Links with Contractors onsite • Potential for sponsorship of materials

  8. VISION FOR THE ENERGY SKILLS CENTRE • To be a focal point for Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths education and skills to raise aspirations towards STEM careers • To support the training needs of the Nuclear Industry and its supply chain in: - New Build Developments - Nuclear Operations & Maintenance - Decommissioning • To support the development of the next generation of Nuclear Scientists/Engineers • Support the development of alternative energy skills through training
