English and mathematics in Apprenticeships: Guide

etf:1586

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.
