Method: desk-based checks against relevant documentation and datasets and completion of an audit report.

Continuous Audit 2015/16 Approval/Periodic Review Process Reviews and Event Reports Aim: to review the relationship between the two templates that were introduced as part of the revised event-based approach to approval and periodic review. Rationale: to consider their effectiveness and propose revisions to the templates or guidance (if applicable). Method: to review a sample of process reviews and event reports from 2014/15. Findings will be captured in an audit report.

Enhancement Audit 2015/16 Collaborative Admissions Processes Aim: to evaluate collaborative partner’s understanding of our requirements in respect of admissions processes including our policies and procedures, English language requirements, roles and responsibilities and to identify areas of good practice and enhancement.
