Hiring or upskilling staff through apprenticeship training is a productive
and effective way for any organisation to grow its own talent and to
develop a motivated, skilled and qualified workforce and this is true for
schools too.
The benefits are limitless – Schools across England have said:
● Apprenticeships are a fantastic way to access training and for
developing staff.
● Training can be adapted to meet the contextual and specific needs of
your school
● Apprenticeship training boosts staff morale, increases engagement
and motivation.
● Staff feel valued by the significant investment in their professional
development.
Nationally all organisations have said:
● 86% of employers said apprentices developed skills directly relevant
to their workplace
● 78% reported improved performance as a result of training.
● 90% of apprentices stay on in their place of work.
By investing in apprenticeships for your school workforce you are showing
your entire school community – pupils, teachers, parents and governors –
that you invest in the continuous improvement of your staff and that
apprenticeships are a credible way to progress careers.
