This guide has been designed to help you analyse the way you currently organise your Apprenticeships to identify where further improvements can be made in line with the reforms. The guide will support you in creating and managing ‘expansive’
Apprenticeships. An expansive Apprenticeship makes demands on apprentices, their employers and on training providers by maximising the added value that Apprenticeship can bring to workforce performance.
The aim of the project was to produce a set of interactive sustainable development resources (generic and subject focused) across a number of themes to help embed sustainability into the curriculum. The themes (teams) included: Building local resilience (land based) Learning from our ancestors (engineering); Reusable Energy (RE) technology (plumbing); Sustainable buildings (construction); Sustainable communities (catering); Reduce carbon emissions, improve productivity (business); Reduce, reuse, recycle (hair & beauty); Understanding Sustainable Development (sustainability team).
The aim of the project was to raise awareness of sustainable development to learners attending construction and motor vehicle courses and for employees of small businesses and to raise awareness of the local employment opportunities available in the new emerging Low Carbon Goods and Services sector. The College wanted to develop courses and programmes in the area of sustainability and this project presented them with the catalyst to begin to pilot a number of different qualifications, which would be delivered as part of main learning courses for particular groups of learners.
A step by step guide for providers
This guide is aimed at providers who are considering offering GCSEs in English and
maths. It will also be useful for all providers who would like to adopt a more
coherent approach to delivering English and maths within Apprenticeships in general.
Although the guide mainly focuses on GCSEs, we are aware that functional skills or other English and maths qualifications may be more appropriate for many apprentices.
