.@HIT_MD1: 'It would be unthinkable to delay GCSE, A-level and degree students’ grades for months, with no end in sight, until a solution for testing could be found. It should be equally unthinkable for apprentices and other FE and work-based learners.' https://t.co/WYOCRM5xol

Genuine questions. Why would a young person choose to do a level 3 hairdressing T level rather than a level 3 hairdressing apprenticeship? https://t.co/iK29XU5m30
@NickLinford on employers using level 6 & 7 apprenticeships to subsidise or replace existing training schemes: 'The levy should be spent on supporting people who would not not otherwise be assisted, primarily young people entering trades and professions at Levels 2 and 3.' 👍👍👍
@HASWSJC or Dental Nurses. On Hair the TB Group appealed the L2 decision as far as I understand. Must have been chucked out and didn't make it to formal review stage unlike some others in the review.
Following feedback from employers and providers, the Secretary of State has decided to extend the notification period for funding band reductions. Funding band reductions will take effect on 1 January 19. Increases will take effect on 6 October 18. @AELPUK https://t.co/C04ZCVdzCO
