Abstract

The aim of this research study is to investigate and review crisis management tactics in the Further Education Colleges of the United Kingdom. Due to the nature and scope of these institutions and since student crisis impacts the tenor of learning and students? results on the institutions radically, the research stresses on the appropriate crisis management approaches suited to this special niche of education. The study is therefore an exploratory one adopting a mixed methods research design that combines both quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis tools in order to achieve a richer understanding of present-day crisis management in a State Police department. Questionnaires were administered to the staff and students of various Further Education Colleges and interviews were conducted with managers, teachers, and student services personnel. Survey and interview data were analyzed through statistical testing of survey results and qualitative analysis of the interview data and the process aimed at being comprehensive and efficient. Several important management initiatives are discerned by the study that may help to efficiently cope with student-oriented crises. Such are proactive communication plans, the creation of designated mental health resources, and the elaboration of broad emergency response measures. The results also reveal that staff should undergo training for this and that students should be involved in the formulation of these plans so that the plans laid down are feasible. Therefore, this study stresses on the importance of Further Education Colleges to enhance on crucial management models that tackle crises that are apt for students. Therefore, this research benefit policy makers, educational administrators, and practitioners because it offers specific suggestion to improve crisis readiness as well as students? safety supports environment. The research evidence shows that the use of drives mentioned into this study can enhance the ability of Further Education Colleges in handling student-related crises hence enhancing students? well-being and achievement.
