What is an apprentice progress review form?

The employer should aim to hold progress review meetings with the apprentice on a regular basis, ideally quarterly, but they may need to be at shorter intervals early on and adjusted as the apprenticeship progresses.

Use these progress reviews to encourage collaboration and to set out what is required of the employer to play an active role in helping their apprentice to develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours required of them to be successful.

Compliance

UK employment law and best practice

  • Discrimination: The employer must ensure that the progress review process does not discriminate against the apprentice based on any protected characteristics, such as age, disability, gender, race, religion, or sexual orientation. The employer should ensure that the review process is fair and objective and that all apprentices are treated equally.

  • Health and Safety: The employer must ensure that the review process is conducted in a safe and healthy environment, and that any risks are identified and addressed. The employer should also ensure that the apprentice has received adequate training and instruction on any tools or equipment used during the review process.

  • Data Protection: The employer must comply with data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), when collecting, storing, and processing personal data about the apprentice during the review process. The employer should obtain the apprentice's consent to collect and process their personal data and ensure that it is only used for the purpose of the review.

  • Confidentiality: The employer must ensure that any information shared during the review process is kept confidential and only disclosed to those who have a legitimate need to know. The employer should obtain the apprentice's consent before sharing any sensitive or confidential information about them.

  • Apprenticeship Standards: The employer must ensure that the review process complies with the apprenticeship standards set out by the relevant industry sector or professional body. The review should assess the apprentice's progress against the agreed standards and identify any areas where further training or support is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this in my small business?

Yes. This template has been designed for organisations of all sizes, including small businesses, charities and growing employers. It follows UK employment law best practice and can be adapted to suit your organisation.

Is it compliant with 2026 UK employment law?

Our templates are developed with UK employment legislation, Acas guidance and HR best practice in mind and are reviewed and updated as relevant requirements change. However, every employment situation is different, so the template should be adapted to the circumstances and checked against the employee's contract and your organisation's procedures before use.

Can I customise it for my organisation?

Yes, we highlight the areas of the document that you need to update with your own details, and where you need to make decisions to suit your situation. This saves you time and ensures that you meet best practice.

Do I get instant access to it?

Yes. Once purchased, you'll be able to download it instantly. Templates are provided in editable format (such as .doc or .xls) so you can customise them easily, and in PDF format for easy sharing.

If you're looking for broader support, we also offer toolkits and library bundles that include the Apprentice progress review form template, along with other HR templates and policies for fully managing your situation. These may be more cost-effective if you need deeper advice.

Why should I use this Apprentice progress review form template, and not AI to generate it?

AI can produce a document quickly, but effective HR documentation needs to be more than well-written words. It needs to reflect relevant UK employment law, HR best practice, practical considerations and the circumstances in which it will be used. These resources have been professionally developed around that wider HR context, drawing on extensive practical experience, rather than simply generating a generic document from a prompt.
