Minister Robert Halfon's virtual speech to the Annual Apprenticeship Conference 2024 in Birmingham.
Hello – I’m sorry I can’t be with you today as planned.
I hope you’ve had a brilliant couple of days discussing every aspect of apprenticeships delivery.
I want to say thank you to Shane [Mann] and FE Week for organising this conference.
I always say that FE Week makes the life of a Skills Minister difficult - but it makes complacency impossible!
Whenever I want to find out what’s going on in the DfE, I read FE Week.
