Ofsted awards RAF Apprenticeship Scheme top marks

The RAF Apprenticeship Scheme has been graded as ‘Outstanding’. It is one of the highest performing apprenticeship providers in the country.

This accolade from Ofsted (the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills) follows a rigorous inspection carried out in December looking into the teaching standards and the experiences of recruits at RAF training schools and operational units.

In making their finding the inspectors examined the programme’s overall effectiveness, the quality of teaching, learning and assessment, its leadership and management, and the outcomes experienced by learners.

It’s not the first time the RAF has received national recognition for the quality of its training programme, which is a major supplier of skilled workers for the UK economy.

Air Vice-Marshal Andrew Turner, the Air Officer Commanding No 22 (Training) Group, which is responsible for RAF recruiting and providing trained specialist personnel to all 3 services, welcomed Ofsted’s findings.
