Have you heard of the Apprenticeship Support and Knowledge (ASK) project? Funded by the Department for Education, ASK offers free support packages to schools across the country with the aim of increasing students’ understanding of apprenticeships and T-Levels.
Technical education pathways like apprenticeships involve a combination of on-the-job training and classroom-based learning (at least 20% of working hours), which presents numerous benefits and, as ASK’s new Buckinghamshire delivery partner, it’s our responsibility to reveal them..
Throughout the 2023/24 academic year, we’ll be facilitating assemblies, application workshops, mock assessment days and career fairs, but until then, you can get a taste of what’s on offer at GOV.UK.
