Ofsted is responsible for inspecting the quality of apprenticeship training provision at Levels 4-5.
The OfS is responsible for regulating all provision at registered providers, including apprenticeships at Levels 4-5, with or without a qualification.
The Level 4 and 5 apprenticeship pilot established that OfS and Ofsted quality assessment processes are complementary and the organisations exchange valuable information to evaluate the quality of apprenticeship provision. As part of the ongoing pilot, the OfS will provide information and data to Ofsted to inform its risk assessment process and areas of focus for inspections.
