Award for BPN apprenticeships

“I now want to become a senior or a room manager within my setting. The knowledge and experience I have gained from the course has given me the confidence to set these as aspirations for myself.”

“The course has helped me to gain a deeper knowledge and understanding of how to tailor the EYFS curriculum to support children’s cultural capital, interest, needs and learning and development by becoming an effective early years teacher. I am looking for early years teacher jobs currently to use the knowledge and experience gained.”

BPN was awarded Education and Childcare Apprenticeship Provider of the Year at the Annual Apprenticeships Awards in Birmingham in March 2023. The awards were hosted by industry magazine FE Week and the Association of Employment and Learning Providers (AELP) in association with skills development body City & Guilds.

Tracy Clement, Apprenticeships Director at Best Practice Network, said: “This award recognises the impact that we’re now making in apprenticeship provision. We are excited about the future of apprenticeships and the role that Best Practice Network will play in shaping the industry’s growth and development.

“We are committed to expanding our apprenticeship offer –we’ve recently added a Post Graduate Teacher Apprenticeship programme which starts in September – while continuing to deliver the highest quality of training possible.”
