Before your child commits to the Young Apprenticeship programme it is important for you and your child to understand what Business & Administration is.

Currently, there are 4.5 million people in the UK workforce that are involved in administrative roles. There are a further 18 million people in non administrative occupations that need administration skills to fulfil their role. In a workforce of 28.8 million, this is an incredible amount.

By taking part in the Young Apprenticeship in Business & Administration, your child will acquire essential skills and knowledge which will act as a solid foundation upon which they can make an informed choice at the age of 16. Through work placement experience they will get an insight into what the world of work is really like and as they will also be studying on an academic level, they will have the benefit of two perspectives. Ultimately, the Young Apprenticeship aims to widen the opportunities available to pupils.
