Racial group Positive Impact In terms of ethnicity, data on population and college headcount suggests that the Glasgow College Region broadly reflects the regional population in terms of levels of representation across the ethnicity groupings. However, in terms of the impact of migration on resultant demand for English tuition, 2011 census data provided evidence that approximately 17,000 Glasgow College Region residents claim to speak little or no English. Corresponding to these suggested high levels of demand for English tuition, Glasgow Region colleges will continue to provide appropriate levels of English language tuition matched to local population needs to support integration and access to employment, including that coordinated through Community Planning Partnerships.

Sexual Assumed neutral no actions identified which would impact on this – orientation specific characteristic.

Action to Remove or Minimise Any Actual or Potential Negative Impacts Identified No negative impacts on protected characteristic groups are identified. Monitoring and Evaluation The Glasgow 2017-18 ROA results from an ongoing review of the regional curriculum based on the most up to date labour market, economic and demographic information. Therefore, refinements will be made annually as appropriate to ensure a continued best fit of the curriculum to employment opportunities within the Glasgow region. This joint curriculum planning activity will take place within Regional Outcome Agreement development and delivery arrangements and within this activity participation rates for protected characteristic groups will continue to be monitored and reviewed.
