We are delighted that we\u2019ve been approved and added to the YPO Apprenticeship Framework.\u00a0 As you\u2019d expect, our Grade 1 Ofsted score has helped with our tender submission, but the process required much more than that, including detailing flexibility in delivery model, experience in public sector partnerships, and a thorough social value proposition.<\/p>\n<p>A number of our existing local authority customers plan to use YPO to procure further, and larger apprenticeship cohorts, and so we hope to secure continued partnerships with them and with new public sector clients.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lizzy Grayson, Category Manager at YPO told GPSJ: \u201cWe recognised that procuring apprenticeships can quickly become confusing for the public sector and we wanted to offer a solution for our customers.
