Provider overview

We specialise in the education sector, business administration, early years, and teaching assistant professions. We have been providing apprentice training for over 10 years. We train approximately 80 apprentices each year. We train in Calderdale and Kirklees in West Yorkshire.

We had a full Ofsted inspection in June 2021 which was just after COVID and we were a completely new team resulting in a Requires improvement grade which we were reassured was the highest we could achieve as the new team could show intent and implementation, but it was too early to showcase the impact, we had a monitoring visit in July 2022 which showed reasonable improvement and was very positive
