Bury Council: 2020-2021 apprenticeship data
We have a public sector target around new apprenticeship starts. We aim to have apprentices make up 2.3% of our workforce, this target period runs from 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2021.
Each year we are required to report on our progress to meeting this target. Over this target period we have continued to develop our apprenticeship offer and apprenticeship opportunities that develop skills set and supports career pathways. Although this result marks the end of this target period, we are committed to continuing to build on what has already been achieved. Continuing to maximise the use of the Council's apprenticeship levy in 2021/22 and beyond, by further enhancing opportunities for new and existing employees that will ensure we have the right people with the right skills at the right time to deliver high quality services.
Public Sector Recruitment Target = 2.3%.
Bury Council progress towards this target for 2020-21 reporting period = 1.26%.
