These programmes include ‘Off the Job’ hours of 6 hours per week. This means that the staff member will, within their working week, spend 6 hours of their time focussed on their apprenticeship. Once a month they will be required to attend face to face teaching at Westgate College. This is part of their off the job hours.
English and maths are a requirement of an apprenticeship, with the staff member holding a grade C/4 or above in each subject. If they don’t have these qualifications and their certificates, we can offer these programmes as part of the training and this also has to be delivered within their working week.
