That is exactly why apprenticeships have been devalued, and most young people, regardless of their suitability are funnelled into university.
I would like to see a Nordic or German system where apprenticeships are offered in a variety of vocational areas, not just construction related trades. And such apprenticeships are valued and prized as much as a degree. The Review Group are an impressive lot, with good international experience, and im looking forward to their findings.
