A new leadership and management training provider that quickly recruited over 600 apprentices is considering legal action against a grade four Ofsted report.
The Opportunity Group was given an ‘inadequate’ rating by the inspectorate in its first full inspection since the company started providing apprenticeships in September 2018.
In a report published on Saturday, Ofsted criticised the provider for putting adults on to unsuitable apprenticeships – an issue that has led to large numbers of apprentices dropping out and too many who are significantly beyond their planned end date.
