Mother, Dallas Chapman and daughter, Molly Pitt recently had their story featured in, The Times. Both completing the British Airways Cabin Crew Apprenticeship, this airborne duo showed the world how apprenticeships can work for anyone, irrespective of age or circumstance.

MACE Group held their own apprentice awards and also recognised line managers who had given great support to their apprentices, both personally and in the workplace.

ISG and Tideway both took part in an Apprenticeship Q&A for parents, teachers, young people and employers hosted by, Construction Youth Trust.

Dan Miller of Young Professionals launched his first ever teacher network events and

• ver 40 London partner schools attended. Other ambassadors such as, IBM and Lloyd’s

Banking Group also got involved in the initiative.

National Apprenticeship Week 2020 Focus, Theme and Core Activities

Theme – ‘Look Beyond’

• Calling on young people to look beyond -

traditional routes into employment and explore the diversity of career options and industries now available to them through apprenticeships

• Calling on employers to look beyond –
• traditional hiring routes and shout about the value they see from diversifying their

workforce through hiring apprentices

• Calling on parents and teachers to look beyond-
• preconceptions around further education, building understanding and confidence

around the value of apprenticeships and sharing this with young people.

With this theme, our goal is to celebrate the diversity of opportunity and value that apprenticeships bring to the country. #NAW2020 #LookBeyond
