@TradesTalk A5 cont everyone is the same lots of people could do for better if not In the skl environment and keeping them there makes the problem worse not better #TRADESTALK

[James B @JamesB177]

@TradesTalk A5 gonna be a long road but feel it should start with the skls less focus on some of the subjects and get more practical bits back. The way the working world is going lots of the genral jobs will die out where as the construction industry wont. They need to realise not#tradestalk

[James B @JamesB177]

@TradesTalk Q4 I think this is a hard call but I certainly enjoy the self employed way but can see why many dont. I think it all depends on the person and there wants and needs #tradestalk

@AWilliamsltd Been there with many head maps! It's a hard call mate we have gone metal in the last van hoping it will last a long long time but there is a lot to consider !

[James B @JamesB177]

@TradesTalk A1 yes it was good college could have been better as the tutors weren't the best and didn't even have one for a time. You only seemed to successed if you pushed yourself which if it's the same these days I think many will find much harder #Tradestalk

[James B @JamesB177]

@TradesTalk A2 I think the schools are part of the problem some people shouldn't be in skl and would prosper so much more out on site. Schools currently push everyone the same way and we know no one is the same #Tradestalk

[James B @JamesB177]

@TradesTalk A3 Turing up on time wanting to learn pushing them self's understanding they start at the bottom but open your eyes and you can learn alot from looking and asking questions #Tradestalk

[James B @JamesB177]

@TradesTalk @AWilliamsltd A4 in essence good idea but I worry that many will just be used a slacky but in the same breath if they are good companies it could open the apprentices eyes to different areas of a trade ##Tradestalk

[James B @JamesB177]

@TradesTalk A5 yes and most trades I would say are lacking the new younger generation coming in ##Tradestalk

[James B @JamesB177]

@TradesTalk Merry Christmas all #Tradestalk
