Thanks to Jack Sargeant MS for taking the time to talk to ColegauCymru | CollegesWales today about the future of apprenticeships. We emphasised the importance of a joined up approach, proper pathways and exit points, and the need for additional investment to meet government priorities.

Good first day at #AoCConf2024. Still challenges for sector in England but optimism about the possibility of a new relationship with UK Gov. Shows value of professional engagement from Association of Colleges (AoC) Good breakouts on 14-16 provision and on implications of budget and spending review.

Great cross-party group on FE, skills and apprenticeships. Focused on the impact of the Junior Apprenticeship programme in helping 14-16 year olds. Great advocacy from Sharon James ( She/Her) and the team at Cardiff and Vale College | Coleg Caerdydd a’r Fro.

A good initiative and it will strengthen Wales' voice at a crucial time for UK economic policy, but it is disappointing there is no place around the table for further education given the role of colleges in delivering the vocational and technical skills our employers need.

Important recognition from Vikki Howells MS Lynne & Vikki of the growth in college learner numbers this year and the need to keep them in education and training. Thank you to colleagues across the sector for so powerfully making the case for this investment.

Whether at grassroots or the elite level we've made progress on inclusion but football is still a long way from where it needs to be. High-profile players speaking out and standing up makes a huge difference. Empowers young people to get involved in the game.
