Ofsted inspection results: 'Significant Progress'

Andrea supported us in the six months leading up to our monitoring visit. With her independent advice, we were able to gain a result of significant progress in apprenticeships.

This would not have been possible without Andrea’s guidance on our SAR and QIP which formed the framework for our development. I would highly recommend her to new training providers.

Systematic approach to evidence-based operations

[After] our first Ofsted monitoring visit, I realised I was going to need help to get through the full inspection.

Andrea helped us with preparation--gave us a step-by-step framework and framed this within a wider strategic context to make sure that the work we were doing to prepare for inspection also fitted in our organisational goals, and provided reassurance to Ofsted that we were serious about working towards outstanding outcomes.

I would recommend her support as her presence at our first full inspection was critical to getting through it.

Bespoke provider support

Andrea is able to provide tailored support based on your company's requirements. I would highly recommend her to training providers who are new to the industry as well as existing providers as Andrea has years of experience and up-to-date knowledge of the sector.

(P.S. You have been such a great support and this testimony doesn’t do your service justice!)

Solutions integrated with team's workflow

Andrea supported our team when we were preparing for an Ofsted Reinspection monitoring visit in 2022. Andrea’s approach is open, honest and action-oriented which helped us to go through the reinspection and to demonstrate progress. [The changes introduced] aligned with our ways of working and ensured we had the right evidence of impact ready to showcase to inspectors. This helped build confidence in our team.

Andrea is a great sounding board for ideas and to explore options for improvement.
