The Apprenticeship Levy is a Ronseal levy it does what it says on the tin: supports employers to take on more apprentices and invest in the highquality training needed for a skilled workforce.
Since 2010 the government has doubled the apprenticeships spend in cash terms, from 1.2bn in 2010-11 to 2.5bn in 2022-23. Diluting its use would significantly reduce the number of apprenticeship opportunities.
Kennedy was the first MP to employ a full-time apprentice in his parliamentary office.
Every skill learned means better jobs, prospects and security for the apprentice.
Kennedy also said: “Our progress as a nation can be no swifter than our progress in education” Every business that prospers thanks to people it has successfully trained is proof of that.
