Money Box Live: Apprenticeships
from Money Box Hosted by BBC Radio 4
The government wants more young people to be offered "gold standard apprenticeships". The plan was unveiled at the Labour party conference as the Prime Minister ditched the ambition for half of young people to go to university. So we're looking at the financial side of apprenticeships, from how much they pay to what they can mean for a family's finances. Felicity Hannah is joined by Ben Rowland, the author of Understanding Apprenticeships and also the chief executive of the Association of Employment and Learning Providers, a trade body for organisations that train apprentices. And also Rachel Kayes, community manager for the Association of Apprentices, an apprentice support body with around 50,000 members. Presenter: Felicity Hannah Producers: James Graham Editor: Jess Quayle (This episode was first broadcast at 3pm on Radio 4 on the 15th of October 2025).
