Use the information they gather on what learners know and can do on level 1 courses at the start of their courses to plan and teach challenging content and activities appropriate to learners’ existing knowledge and skills.
Monitor the quality of apprenticeship training and the progress that apprentices make to make sure that apprentices complete their courses and achieve their qualifications in a timely manner.
Make sure that young learners attend all the components of their programmes well, including English and mathematics lessons, and tutorials.
Continue to manage the conduct of learners so that across all sites their behaviour is of the high standard expected.
What does the provider need to do to improve further?
Increase the proportion of apprentices, particularly those on plumbing and electrotechnical apprenticeships, who achieve their qualifications in the planned timescale, by ensuring that:
apprentices receive frequent workplace visits and assessments that enable them to make rapid progress
assessors plan on- and off-the-job training effectively.
Increase the proportion of learners aged 16 to 19 who achieve their mathematics and English qualifications or improve their GCSE grade, by ensuring that:
learners attend their lessons in these subjects
teachers plan and teach sessions that take account of each learner’s prior skills and knowledge and therefore meet their individual needs.
