We are truly thrilled to learn that Educationwise Academy has been awarded a grade of Outstanding; following their recent Ofsted inspection!

As a trusted and collaborative End Point Assessment (EPA) partner of the Academy, it was an honour to receive a call with first-hand acknowledgement and a genuine thanks for our contribution.

Awareness of EPA is a key focus for Ofsted inspectors, who will interview apprentices to test their understanding of the EPA process and requirements. Thanks to Educationwise Academy and DSW’s collaborative approach, apprentices were able to demonstrate that they had an excellent understanding of the requirements and were well prepared to undertake their EPA.

We helped to achieve this by providing high quality materials, bespoke workshops and webinars, all delivered by our dedicated, high-touch support team. The synergies in our joint approach make it easier to fulfil our shared vision to set learners up for success and gain substantial skills and knowledge which will help them in their future careers.

Valerio Castorina, Tutor from Educationwise Academy said:

“The DSW team is are a delight to partner with. All the colleagues we interact with, go above and beyond to support and equip us to ensure our learners have the best EPA experience.”

Jake Tween, Apprenticeship Director at DSW commented:

“At DSW we see huge value in working with apprentices, training providers and employers to set clear expectations for EPA. Educationwise Academy is completely aligned to this approach and we’re delighted to congratulate them on a well-deserved outcome.”

We pride ourselves on providing high quality experiences for apprentices by developing inclusive and engaging partnerships, ensuring clarity of the EPA expectations from the very beginning.

We enhance this through strong relationships with awarding bodies, trailblazers, training providers, employers and regulators. This allows us to provide a pragmatic, solutions-focused approach to EPA.
