UCG is delighted to have been awarded an overall ‘Good’ effectiveness grade by Ofsted following its recent inspection in December 2024. Inspectors praised the college’s ‘extensive curriculum offer which aligns exceptionally well with skills priorities in London’ and noted that ‘staff support and encourage learners and apprentices to overcome any barriers to their success, so they can actively participate in and enjoy their education’.
