Funding for school leavers to do extra year of study
To support young people affected by Covid-19, the government has announced £111 million to support school and college leavers at risk of becoming unemployed, to do a fully funded optional extra year of study.
Other measures include £2 billion for a new kick-start scheme to create fully subsidised jobs for young people across the country.
£17 million is also being invested to increase participation in our sector-based work academies, to upskill job seekers to fill locally identified vacancies.
To boost apprenticeships, employers are being offered £2,000 for each new apprentice they hire aged under 25, and £1,500 for each newly recruited apprentice aged 25 and over. This includes taking on an apprentice who has been made redundant.
The Government is also providing a new online and telephone support service for apprentices who have lost their jobs during the Covid-19 outbreak.
The Redundancy Support Service for Apprentices (ReSSA) ensures apprentices can access services that can provide financial, legal, health and wellbeing support, and help them get back on track and on the path to a new career.
