The Government has made available 120,000 new training opportunities to help young people develop skills in key areas such as social care.
Billed as a ‘radical skills revolution’, the training is backed by a £3bn apprenticeship budget.
Education secretary Bridget Phillipson said: ‘A skilled workforce is the key to steering the economy forward, and today we’re backing the next generation by giving young people more opportunities to learn a trade, earn a wage and achieve and thrive.’
