GLOUCESTERSHIRE ENGINEERING TRAINING LIMITED (By Guarantee} CHAIRMAN'S REPORT For the year ended 31 August 2023 CHAIRPERSON'S REPORT 2022-2023 Following on from 202112022 which was very much a transition year post COWD, 202212023 has been a much4mproved year for GET in terms of delivery, Apprenth"sh) on programrr£ delwery and End Point Assessment c<)mpletions. Current we have 66 le8mws who are out of the ApprentiShip funding, however we have SlSSIu11Y supported a further 92 through ErKI Point Assessment. GEF has developed and adapted significantly in ils operational approach lo ensure the Apprentices were trained to sVPPOrt our empkjyer Suc$s1on plannn9. Academic year 202212023 has an increased intake of Apprenli¢es11241, Level 4 {101, Level 31991 and Level 2115}. In addition to the Apprenti5. we had 8 new cohort of $4 HE leamer5 start on HNCID. Another great milestone for GET was our Ofsted inspection. There has been a lol of P$$ regarding the increased rigor of the new Education Inspection Framework and the challenging outcomes lor a high number of colleges and independent training woviders. GET achieved a 'Good 'grad8 for all aieas, and we were only two minor points away from achieving Outstanding. Whilst this is 8 very positive outcome for us, there is darily on the are8s we need lo improve upon which will be reflected in the SAR IS&lf-Assessmenl Report) and QIP (Quality Improvement Planl. One of these areas is the way we report the Quality of Educatitsn to our BoardlGovemors. There has most definitejy been an impact on the younger generation due to the closure of schools and CAG'8 Icenlre Asse55menls Grades) have had a negative impact on our learners, both academically and socially and the outcomes and progres5i0n into Year 2 of the Technical Certificate, where there has been a high nurnber of leamers fail their Math's and Materials units. GET has however provided support lo ensure most of the learner's progress. Higher Education reamers have been far more successful over the last 12 months whith 15 very posits.ve news. There have been agreements to prtsthde additional paid support for learner5 this academlc year at both Level 2 or Level 3 Technical Certificate and practical delivery. Just 5 learners failed one or more modules of their HNCID. A very big improvement in comparison to the previous Academic years, which is Ihanks to the dedication of the Academic Team and the support ofthe employers. As alway5. a review of the delivery year was undertaken. with measures put in pla lo avoid similar issues with leamers f8iling. We have adapted th& curriculum delivery plan and allocated sessions attheend of (heyearlosupportlhose leamers who were close to passin9. Positively, all limelabled delivery for the practr'cal delivery was successfijlly compfeted by the first week in Augu31. Thanks tcs the dedication and support of the Staff within the Pr8ctii31 Delivèry Team, all the learners can now progress lo the development (Level 31 stage of their ApprentishIP. Financially, as anticipated, we have performed well this 8cademi¢ yèar. with surplus of £87,598. Recruilmenl for 2023r2024 has been very positive, with the biggest intake lo date Level 3 Apprentices193 in Barnwood and 11 in Forest of Dean) and Level 4 Apprenti5(341. a lolal of 138 Apprentices and 39 new Higher Education learners added to the Irrent groups of HE learn8rs. Although the average number of Staff has remained the same year on ye8r, we have sucssfUllY recruited additional Academic Tutors, Instructors, two Skills & Development Advisors. a Quality Manager and a Learner Liaison Officer lo support growth and sUCSsion planning due lo relirernenl. Along with this recruitment drive we have agreed a S$s1On plan lo recruit two additional members of Staff every year for the next two years to support futureretirements. Commercial skills trarning is increasing with far more demand due to the appoinlrngntof a Training & Maintenance Manager. creating a more efficient operating model which has resulted in largely increased income. however extemal demand currently exceeds our capacity to deliver. A satellite centre in the Forest of Dean has been identified and we have opened fortrainiro in September 2023. The maln aim of the project is Its redLth our carbon footprint and to support the young AppientiGes in the Forest, with the logistical hallenga of getting intts Barnwood. Many are aged between 1&17 and non-drivers, who ale reliant on public transport which has not been the best. This will all¢)w the first years from the Forest to complete the Level 2 practul skills nearer home and only attend GET on a day rel08se basis in Years 2 and 3. We have now successfully managed the end of our shortfall deposit agTeetnents with all but of our customers. This was done to redu Ihe company's liabilities and fin8nrE future growth,. we have agreed wth employer5 for them lo stop paying shortfall deposits and in relum GET will ringfence their ()utstanding refunds as designated lo offset thè Year 1 Apprenliceshipfunding deficiland lofinance growth. We have aged an intereslfree loan wilh on8 of our ernployer partners lo return the shortfall deposits over a period often years, wth the first payment made in August 2023. The shortfall deposll liabilty has reduced £222,919 year on year. It has been anoiher demanding year for everyone. these difficulties are r8ducin9 on a weekly basis. I want lo thank all the Staff at GET for their continued hard work. efforts. and commitmerts during these extremely busy and derranding limes. I would also like lo thank all our ojslorners and Board of Directors for their patience and ongoing support.

GLOUCESTERSHIRE ENGINEERING TRAINING LIMITED (By Guarantee) MANAGEMENT BOARD'S REPORT For the year ended 31 August 2023 As a Chxrty we regulady benchrnark our remuneration and beneffls packages against a variety of measures- firstly we look81 the local market rates by comparing oursalaiies and T&Cs against ourcornpetilors, we look at benchmarking against olherGroup Training Associations IGTAI across the UK and use national slalislics from public research IKPMG etc.). We aim to make sure we are al least competitive and are paying the market rates but also need lo make our offer attractive wilhoul being overly excessive to the market posib"on. This activity is a)mpleied internally by HR and thé CEO and presented and discussed at Board level. Very recently board directors who have a 5uilable background have also carried oul these reviews as a supporting measure.

We have most definitely nOtd a difference in abilitie8 of the younger apprenteS this academic year. Far more support sessions have been provided over the last Iwelve nKinths, particularly in areas such as Malhemalics and materials lor the level 3 apprentices. Failure rates forlhe academic year 2022-2023 have improved significantly. Leamers who unfortunately failed modules were given the opportunity to repeat the training 81 the ènd of the academic year or relum for a short period in September 2023. The failures were down the learners, attitude and engagement or in some instances capability or poor retention. Apprenb'ceship success rates at GET did drop as low as 67%, with the nation818ver8ge as low 8$ 53.4 /0, thi5 was due lo leaver and the delay in complèting EPA. however these are now increasing vary iapidly to thè level we are 8CCUStomed lo, and we have 8 tsrget to leach 85Q/o plus.
