Labour's flagship apprenticeship scheme enrols only 160 young people

Labour's flagship apprenticeship programme has only managed to sign up 160 individuals during its initial eight-month period, significantly missing its goal of 30,000. The Fabian Society, a Labour-affiliated thinktank, warned this puts the government's "skills revolution" at risk. Overall apprenticeship starts for under-25s are about 40% lower than a decade ago.
