Strategy and values
NCG exists to create life-changing opportunities for individuals that strengthen the prosperity of their local communities. We are committed to creating inclusive communities of excellent learning and teaching which benefit from sharing best practice developed across the seven learning organisations which are NCG.
Together, our colleges and partners are creating the workforce of the future by enabling all people, regardless of their background, to develop the skills that our local communities need to be successful and sustained.
Our mission to ‘enable social mobility and economic prosperity through exceptional education’ is supported by our values, which underpin the culture and beliefs of our organisation.
Our values are not just about what we do, but also how we do things. Shaped by our colleagues, customers and learners, they set the standard of how we should behave, how we work together and give us the opportunity to make the right decisions based on the values we all share.
- Being both inclusive and diverse
- Trusting and respecting our communities
- Taking ownership whilst working collaboratively
- Inspiring excellence and curiosity
