Ofsted Inspection
Mid Cheshire College is "outstanding"
Staff and students at Mid Cheshire College are celebrating after Ofsted acknowledged the College as an "outstanding" educational institution. In early November, a team of five inspectors spent a week at the College, visiting classes, talking to staff and students and meeting with employers, community organisations and local schools. Their overall judgment is that Mid Cheshire is now a Grade 1 college.
