Schools with 250 or more employees are required to report apprenticeship data. There is no longer a target set in legislation for public sector employers but it is still important that public sector bodies continue to gather and report relevant apprenticeship data.
The following information demonstrates that as a Trust we are continuing to actively consider apprenticeships either for new positions or as part of career development for existing staff.
