Northcoders earns top Ofsted rating

A Leeds-based technology training provider has achieved the highest possible rating in its first full inspection. 

Northcoders has been rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted across all areas, placing it in the top six per cent of UK further education providers delivering apprenticeships and skills training.

Northcoders’ curriculum, focused on software and data engineering bootcamps, was praised for being ‘highly ambitious, current and industry-informed’, while the provider’s strong learner support and commitment to inclusion was recognised as ‘exceptionally effective’ and praised for helping students rapidly transition into digital careers.

Chris Hill, chief executive, said: “We are incredibly proud to have received the highest possible recognition from Ofsted. 

“This rating is a clear validation of the quality we strive to deliver, from curriculum design to course execution, and the life-changing impact our programmes have for learners from all walks of life.

“It enhances our credibility, bolsters our bid-winning capability and positions us as a leading provider of high-quality digital skills training at a time when confidence and rigour in provider selection has never been more critical.”
