Safeguarding

Safeguarding is just as important in end-point assessment as it is in apprenticeship training.

It may not be directly mentioned in the ESFA conditions for EPAOs, or in the Ofqual conditions , but you must still safeguard all learners (the conditions use references such as “protecting the interest of learners”).

If you would like to find out more, I wrote an article earlier this year about safeguarding and welfare in end-point assessment.
