Absolutely this - to “build 1.5m new homes” you need town planners. To “fix the NHS” you need advantaged clinical practitioners. “Going for growth” means you need AI and Data Specialists. “Doing more for young people” doesn’t mean closing off L7 apprenticeships to young adults.
Monday night football seemed to step up a gear tonight - likely because @Bruce10Dyer was a last minute addition. I’ll definitely ache in the morning.

📣"An all age, all level system has to be prioritised and protected."
After last week's party conference gave us the best idea yet of what the government is planning, @D_Lally has analysed Labour's latest apprenticeship announcements for @Wonkhe.

So L7 apprenticeships are back in the crosshairs today. I have 3 main things to say which all speak to the disproportionate impact of this rhetoric.
I accept this is based on my experience of @sheffhallamuni's apprentices, and may not reflect all providers, however (a thread):
2) I just don't recognise the narrative of 'already well payed, well qualified employees'. These are NHS workers, civil servants and local authority employees. A high number of our L7 apprentices have prior attainment below level 4 and come from the areas of highest deprivation

Great evening at #Oakwell. 3rd time there in a week and 3rd time was a charm.

Getting ready to Chair the National Degree Apprenticeship Conference. It's set to be a great day hearing from the vanguard of the sector. The timing couldn't be better, as Apprenticeships become more and more of a wedge issue heading into the general election

We obviously need to ensure that all provision is high quality and high value but we can't assume the only measure for this is earnings. 3/4

Just spoke to Jim Diamond on @LBCNews about the Conservative Apprenticeship announcements last night. Apprenticeships are great but to suggest there are trade offs doesn't make sense. We continue to hear the binary options presented of Apprenticeships or University 1/4
Yet again hearing the false dichotomy of apprenticeships or university. #BBCQT panellist’s solution to ‘supporting Universities in financial crisis’ is “not an issue, we just need to deliver more apprenticeships” - who do they think are delivering degree apprenticeships…?
