We need to match this growing interest with more high-quality careers advice and support employers of all sizes to take on apprenticeships and experience the wealth of benefits they bring.

By the end of this decade, a million people are projected to be applying to UCAS each year.

So it is more important than ever that young people understand that a traditional university degree is not the only path to a rewarding career.
