Parents' Guide to Apprenticeships

Raising the Participating Age (RPA)

Young people must now continue in education or training until at least their 18th birthday. This does not necessarily mean staying in school; they could:

  • Study full-time in school or college
  • Complete an Apprenticeship
  • Work full-time with part-time education and training
