Plate Welder Apprenticeship in North West
Level 3 · 36 months · Funding band: £27,000
Top providers in North West by achievement rate
Official 2024/25 achievement rates for Plate Welder, published by the Department for Education. Learner numbers shown - providers with fewer than 30 leavers are listed separately. Only 0 providers have enough 2024/25 data to be ranked for this standard, so this is a short table rather than a competitive field. The DfE rounds achievement and leaver counts to the nearest 10, so a rate marked * is approximate and the true figure may be lower. Only providers delivering in North West are listed; the DfE publishes each provider's rate nationally, not per site. How this table works
| # | Provider | Achievement rate | Pass rate | Learners |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| – | Lancaster & Morecambe College few learners | 75% | 100% | 10 |
| – | Burnley College few learners | 58.3% | 100% | 20 |
