Main elements of reform
Employer-led Trailblazers designing
and creating apprenticeships e.g.
Police Officer, Paramedic.
Employers get the opportunity to
set the skills, knowledge and
behaviours needed
Short, concise Apprenticeship

or curriculum plansProviding a ‘shop window’.
All apprenticeships have synoptic end
point assessment; grading.
Apprentices are signed off as fully
competent at the end and “job-ready”
All apprenticeships must last a minimum 12
months but Higher and Degree Apprenticeships
will typically be anywhere from 2-4 years or more
Continuing to drive up the
quality of apprenticeships

• It’s only for trades
• It’s not a real degree
• It’s for those less clever
• It’s for those who don’t want to study
• It’s for an easier life
• It’s not the best option
• You can’t do this route at a Russell
Group University
• It’s second best
• The pay is rubbish
• There’s got to be a catch!
It’s a very competitive route:
BT takes on 4000 Apprentices,
many of which are digital, 10%
are HADA
BUT they had in excess of
60,000 applications!
