What happens if the apprentice fails the observation for the Children, Young People and Families Practitioner standard and needs to resit or retake it?

If the apprentice fails either or both of the assessment methods, they will be eligible for a resit or retake.

Apprentices are permitted to make three attempts at the end-point assessment (EPA).

If the apprentice requires a resit or retake, their overall EPA grade will be capped at a pass, unless Training Qualifications UK determines there are exceptional circumstances.

A resit is typically taken within three months of the original fail notification, while a retake is typically taken within six months.
