Chef de Partie
- Apprentices who started their apprenticeship between 28/09/2021 and 25/06/2023 will be assessed against ST0227/IfATE v1.1/AP05.
- Apprentices who started their apprenticeship on or after 26/06/2023 will be assessed against ST0227/IfATE v1.2/AP05.
Skills England state:
A temporary dispensation has been applied to the assessment plan for this apprenticeship. The dispensation will last until all apprentices on both versions of the assessment plan have completed. It covers all previous versions of the EPA plan.
End-point assessment organisations (EPAOs) delivering EPAs for the apprenticeship will implement the dispensation as required, supported and monitored by the relevant EQA provider.
The key changes are:
Assessment Method 2 – Professional discussion
The independent assessor will pick a minimum of 4 preparation, cooking and finishing techniques to discuss during the professional discussion.
Apprentices should not be told which techniques they will be assessed on before the professional discussion.
Full details can be accessed on the IfATE website: Chef de partie / Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education
