Secure funding from Essex County Council

Essex County Council (ECC) has a substantial Apprenticeship Levy pot for schools. This is available to help cover apprenticeship training costs.

Don’t let this funding go to waste! Get in touch today to find out more: info@essexalts.co.uk

Why offer apprenticeships to your employees?

Offering apprenticeships to your people can help to:

• retain staff and tackle teacher shortages
• enhance the quality of teaching and learning
• inspire engagement
• boost growth and productivity
• attract new talent

What kind of apprenticeships are available? 

From teaching assistants and site maintenance to business support functions and catering staff, there are a range of apprenticeships available. The Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education website provides more information on the types of apprenticeships on offer. There is no age limit for apprenticeship training.

What do I need to know? 

Apprentices will spend 20% of their time on focussed and purposeful off-the-job training. This gives them the chance to complement on-the-job skills with subject matter knowledge and insights.

We can connect you to a relevant, experienced and trusted training provider to ensure apprentices’ learning journeys are supported every step of the way.
