DEARNE Valley College has improved from 'satisfactory' to 'good' according to Ofsted's inspectors.
The Manvers-based college was deemed to be good in its outcomes for learners, the quality of its teaching and learning and also the effectiveness of its leadership and management.
Principal and Chief Executive Martin Harrison said: "I am delighted the report recognises the key milestones the college has achieved since our last inspection in 2011."
The full story appears in the Dearne Edition of the Barnsley Chronicle, dated February 21.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
