The apprenticeship guarantee

David Frayman

CEP Occasional Papers from Centre for Economic Performance, LSE

Abstract: The UK has a poor record of providing opportunities to learn skills for the around half of young people that do not attend university. Over a third of 18-year-olds in England are not undertaking any education or training, significantly higher than in the major EU economies. Concerningly, recent trends have been in the wrong direction. The number of apprenticeship starts in England has significantly declined since the mid-2010s, when it hovered at around half a million.
