Support Services

What providers say?

Onsite support visits and OTLA interventions have enabled us to improve and develop our provision as the result of clear, independent feedback.
Skills for Work
BMDC
The impact from the YLP intervention has been outstanding. The support provided was excellent and directly led to improvements in service delivery and outcomes. Staff responded well to the style and approach.
Nacro
Excellent, impartial and constructive support and feedback following intervention received.
City Training Services
Bradford College
Support provided was very good. Lots of advice and information. It felt like we had a really thorough inspection of what we were doing and where we could improve.
The Link Training Academy
Just thought I’d share the mantra in our office if a question comes up that we don’t know the answer to. It’s “Call Alex”. We know we’ll have a prompt response which is understandable, relevant and implementable, which you can’t often say about apprenticeship queries

Training Provider
A new directly funded apprenticeship provider, has recently been through their first Ofsted monitoring visit. The visit went exceptionally well, and the report is a great representation of their excellent delivery and service. The provider uses YLP support services to help enhance their provision, particularly the OTLA support. Ofsted found this to be a positive element to their quality of teaching & learning and improvements.
They use observations carried out by an external organisation to help them to identify and act on strengths and areas for development in teaching, learning and assessment. Observers provide useful reports with clear actions and targets to help tutors improve.
