  • Apprentices who started their apprenticeship on or after 29 May 2023 will be assessed against v1.2.
  • Apprentices who started their apprenticeship before 29 May 2023 will be assessed against v1.1. However, apprentices can transfer onto the v1.2 at the agreement of their employer and training provider, so long as they have had the opportunity to prepare for the revised assessment plan and have informed Highfield of this prior to scheduling.
