The following statement is at the heart of our values and behaviour:
“We are proud to work here for the benefit of our customers and communities”
As a maintained school you are eligible for levy-funding to support new or current employees who are eligible for an apprenticeship programme.
- apprenticeships are available to all ages and abilities
- as apprenticeships are work-based learning, your current working role needs to support the training and development on offer within a specific apprenticeship which we can help map across for you
There are many apprenticeship routes available, the most popular in schools for the 2023-24 academic year included:
- early years practitioner, level 2
- community activator coach, level 2
- property maintenance operative, level 2
- early years educator, level 3
- teaching assistant, level 3
- business administrator, level 3
- school business professional, level 4
- sports coach, level 4
- people professional, level 5
- career development professional, level 6
We have a catalogue of approved training providers who have completed our procurement process. They are available today to offer training to you and your staff.
Please note the levy has a limited amount of funds.
Before contacting any potential training providers, please ensure you contact the talent team: talent@lincolnshire.gov.uk
We will be able to confirm that funds have been set aside for your school. Failure to do this could result in the apprenticeship not being funded through this route.
Our commitment to the development of our school staff means that we maximise their resilience and capacity to do their job well.
This creates a flexible and agile team who provide effective services in education.

Benefits for staff professional development
We manage a catalogue of experienced apprenticeship training providers. These providers can develop new and established staff members, of any age, to undertake further CPD that ranges from a GCSE to Bachelors or Masters equivalent. This means that we maximise staff resilience and capacity to perform their role to an exceptionally high standard.
The apprenticeship levy is government funding that allows the total cost of apprenticeship training to be financed through the digital apprenticeship system.
Please note schools will still need to cover all staffing costs.
