Our culture

We’re committed to maintaining a workplace where everyone feels heard and valued.

We’re an inclusive workplace that enables our colleagues to thrive.

We take pride in our expertise and remain committed to our core values of humanity and empathy.

Our culture is one where we listen, empathise and support our colleagues, so we can do the same on behalf of students and apprentices.

We’re in the top ten Civil Service departments for staff engagement. Our score for inclusion and fair treatment ranked us 4th out of 104 departments in the 2022 Civil Service people survey.

Diversity, equality and inclusion networks

We’re a disability confident employer. Equality, diversity, and inclusion are fundamental to who we are. That’s why we’ve set up diversity networks. They help our team members champion these values within Ofqual. We have a race and faith network, a disability network, an LGBTQ+ network, and more.

Our culture embeds learning and development

We offer our people opportunities to grow and improve their skills. As an employee, you’ll have access to workshops, training sessions, mentoring programmes and e-learning courses.
