Lynne Livesey, Joint Institutional Lead, said: “We are dedicated to offering our apprenticeship students and their employers the very best in teaching and learning so this ‘good’ Ofsted rating is a great marker for us.
“A large majority of our apprentices are mature students who have been out of education for a number of years. Through these vital apprenticeships, we are enabling people who might not have thought about higher education to access it and in turn they are gaining official qualifications and adding much needed resources into the local health economy.”
