A free, independently reviewed compliance audit for your provision. Our assurance team runs a full DfE funding and Ofsted readiness review on your live data, then issues you a signed certificate, executive summary and action plan. No extra cost. No consultancy invoice.
A real audit, run by our team on your real data — not a self-assessment form you fill in yourself.
Our assurance team runs a deterministic review across your real delivery records — funding eligibility, ILR identity, off-the-job hours, signatures, tripartite reviews, safeguarding, EPA and destinations. No questionnaires, no sampling guesswork.
Every finding is checked by a human before anything reaches you. We turn the verified findings into a clear executive summary and a curated, prioritised action plan — then a named reviewer signs it off.
You get an overall rating, separate DfE funding and Ofsted readiness ratings, the signed executive summary, your action plan and a downloadable certificate — ready to show leadership, governors or an inspector.
A single, honest headline rating for where your provision stands today.
How defensible your funding claims are against the current ESFA rules — and where money is at risk.
How well your delivery, quality and safeguarding evidence would stand up to inspection.
Most apprenticeship platforms leave compliance assurance to you — or sell it back as consultancy. Journey includes it.
