Round table tops off National Apprenticeship Week

Round table

With an increasing number of individuals opting to take up apprenticeships, Greg took the opportunity to mark National Apprenticeship Week by hosting a round table event at the Salomons Estate. The event was attended by around a dozen apprentices, who spoke to Greg about their experiences and shared insight into how apprenticeship programmes work and can be improved.

Greg said: "I am delighted to have met such enthusiastic individuals during the round table event and have learned a great deal about what it means to be an apprentice in Britain today. The fact that many apprenticeships are now recognised as being on par with a university degree is a welcome indication of the growing choice in further education available to everyone."

Backing young people

I believe that every young person should be able to get a good place in a good school, get an apprenticeship, job, or a place at university and get onto the housing ladder locally. I am working with local schools and employers to improve the chances of young people with special educational needs to gain work experience.
