Key Partnership Benefits


What partnership benefits have colleges seen?

“

The Healthy FE process, through promotion from Dudley PCT, has assisted the college in developing its health agenda and move it on from an ad-hoc approach to establishing a college-wide health and wellbeing support structure. One of the key changes that has arisen from participating in Healthy FE has been the development of very strong and supportive relationships with the local community PCT and the local health agencies in the Dudley area.

The sharing of best practice and innovative ideas with other colleges is supported by taking on the role of regional coordinator and the collaborative relationships that have been formed. These relationships are not only local in the community but across other counties and colleges.

Tips for successful partnerships

“

I would suggest that the principal of the college invites the head of the PCT and relevant staff into the college for a formal meeting to discuss how to take the partnership forward. When I started I was just dealing with one person who worked for the sexual health team and I found it quite hard to move forward on various projects. Go in at the top is my tip!

…we have developed a good working relationship with our local chlamydia screening service over the last couple of years, mainly by helping them to reach their targets through running tutorials and well-organised events.

Tips for successful partnerships

“

…‘sell’ what’s in it for them. What boxes can you help them tick? E.g. ‘we have xx number of 16- to 19-year-olds, doing xx with them can help you meet your targets.’ Can you share results/statistics with them and vice versa?

Catering providers – if they are external, make sure that the Healthy College manager is on the committee that approves the contract. Write it into the contact that a healthy provision is part of the deal. Meet with them every month to keep up with making sure that they are providing healthy food.

How do Healthy FE partnerships work in practice?


How have colleges used BCHC to build partnerships?

I plan to do a presentation to the

Children's Trust about our results.

We have obtained extra funding for a wellbeing adviser and a wellbeing kiosk, so we

will be using our results to identify what kind of support

we need.

We plan to develop tutorials based on feedback in the

survey and from focus groups we are running.

The results have helped us to get a

Health Centre (i.e. a classroom refurbished

at PCT expense!!)
