Strategy

As a family of six community-based Colleges and nine Training Centres across East Kent, our Strategic Plan showcases how we will deliver East Kent Colleges Group’s Mission, Vision and Values for the communities we serve.

At the heart of everything we do is community. Ensuring that East Kent Colleges Group plays a leading role in contributing to the economic and social prosperity for the diverse communities which we serve is core to our mission.

In order to achieve this, our Group’s Strategic Plan guides all of our activities ensuring that we are able to truly deliver meaningful and positive impacts with our actions.

Our Strategic Plan runs between 2020 and 2024, and sets out five key Goals to help us achieve our ambitious Vision.

Under the number reads, 'Create a revolutionary model of education, delivering a new range of nationally recognised education solutions for the benefit of East Kent and beyond.' The second box is located to the right of the first, and has a grey background. Under the large number two, reads, 'Deliver inspirational, inclusive and purposeful education that enables young people and adults to achieve their ambitions and meet the needs of East Kent.' The third box located under the first, is dark grey. Under the number three, reads, 'Successfully integrate Ashford College and Spring Lane into the EKC Group family, developing the provision to enable the Group to truly meet the needs of the whole of East Kent.'. The fourth box is located to the right of the third and under the second, with a dark teal background. Under the number four, reads,' Continue to invest in industry-standard facilities and first class Group services that support our business units to deliver aspirational, relevant and high quality learning experiences'. The fifth and final box is located at the bottom, with a light grey background. Next to the number five reads, 'Ensure that EKC Group is an employer of choice and responds appropriately to the social, ethical and moral issues of its communities, supporting the development of well-rounded and responsible young people.'
