After our @EDSKthinktank report in 2020, the DfE claimed they'd banned MBAs from being funded by the apprenticeship levy. Business schools quickly got round the ban, and the farce continues. Good digging by David Cohen (with a contribution from me). independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…

@EDSKthinktank David Cohen Toby Perkins MP is absolutely right that "advanced opportunities are being pressed at the expense of young people and adults looking to retrain or up-skill from entry-level opportunities." Prioritising the skilled +employed over the unskilled + unemployed is dismal policymaking.

David Cohen The astonishing Β£1bn figure for these so-called level 7 courses means that the scale of the scandal of young people losing out as firms use the apprenticeship levy to bankroll training for executives is more than three times worse than previously feared.
