A CIMSPA Training Provider Partner, Educationwise Academy, received an ‘outstanding’ judgement in its summer inspection report.

The report, published in August, praised tutors and leaders for carefully planning curriculums and said apprentices make “significant progress.”

OFSTED had said they had a “meticulously constructed” curriculum and “extremely positive” relationships with “carefully selected” employers. “For example, they have worked closely with an awarding body [CIMSPA] to ensure that newly developed standards meet the needs of the sports industry and their apprentices.”

The firm began training apprentices in 2019. It consistently scored top marks. Their apprenticeship standards include sports coaching, leadership, and management. They had 135 people working on apprenticeships in sports coaching and development when the report was published.

Nick Preston, Head of Education and Quality at Educationwise Academy, said: “Working closely with CIMPSA has ensured our coaching and fitness programmes not only meet the needs of the sector, but that we can continue to develop high-quality individuals, devoted to inspiring a nation to understand and benefit from sport and physical activity.”
