Ofsted inspected our apprenticeship provision in February 2026. Under Ofsted’s new report card framework, which replaced the old single-word grades, we met the expected standard across the areas inspected.
Inspectors noted that employers value greatly the progress apprentices make in the workplace, that apprentices steadily develop the knowledge, skills and professional behaviours needed to carry out their jobs competently, and that leaders ensure the quality of teaching and training has a positive impact on apprentices’ lives, professionally and personally.
The result reflects the work of our tutors, assessors and quality team, and of the employers and apprentices we work with. Read the full report on ofsted.gov.uk, or find out more about our apprenticeships.
