Getting Ofsted ready – Webinars

8 April, 2021

HEE are planning a series of 4 webinars with an associated package of support to create a community of good practice for all HEIs delivering apprenticeships to the NHS and NHS Trusts on the RoATP.

With Ofsted now taking responsibility for quality inspections for all levels of apprenticeship delivery it is essential that HEIs are prepared, as a poor Ofsted outcome means a total ban on all new apprenticeship starts. The NHS have ambitious growth plans for all degree apprenticeships and we need to ensure high quality delivery is available nationally. The webinars will be chaired by Stewart Segal who has extensive apprenticeship delivery expertise with support from Kate Hill – HMI Ofsted and Lucy Hunte HEE.
