1. Introduction Modern Apprenticeships (MAs) provide individuals with the opportunity to secure industry-recognised qualifications at a range of Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF) levels while in employment. A Modern Apprentice could be a new team member or an existing employee seeking to increase their capability. Modern Apprenticeships also provide a way for businesses to train employees to industry-recognised standards. The focus of Modern Apprenticeships is set out each year in a letter of guidance from the Scottish Government. For 2018/19, the letter of guidance states that Modern Apprenticeships (MAs) are well established and critical to our Youth Employment and Economic strategies. Apprenticeships deliver against our dual aims of supporting economic growth where they support growth and STEM sectors while providing real employment opportunities for young people. employed, the volume of starts for each MA framework is determined by employer demand. In 2018/19, the apprenticeship starts target increased to 28,000 - in keeping with the Scottish Government s commitment to increase apprenticeship starts to 30,000 by 2020. From this year, Graduate Apprenticeship (GA) starts will be included in the apprenticeship total and contribute towards the Scottish Government s commitment. The aim of this report is to provide quarterly analysis (1 st April 2018 to 29 th June 2018) of the cumulative statistics associated with those Modern Apprenticeships, where there is a public funding contribution administered by Skills Development Scotland (SDS) on behalf of the Scottish Government. Statistics in this report are used to monitor the current demand for, and performance of, these Modern Apprenticeships and may be of interest to a variety of audiences including local authorities and learning providers. Over recent years, policy priority has been placed on opportunities for young people, higher level apprenticeships (SCQF level 6 and above), key and growth industries and supporting equal access to opportunities. As MAs are Key analysis provided in this report includes: Starts by age, level and framework grouping In training by age, level and framework grouping Achievements 3

Equality data In addition, this report also includes information on MA redundancies up to the end of quarter 1 2018/19 and employer incentives to support MAs who have been made redundant in completing their Modern Apprenticeship. 2. Notes to Readers The statistics in this report are derived from our Financial and Information Processing System (FIPS). This report covers statistics related to Modern Apprenticeships where there is a public funding contribution administered by SDS on behalf of the Scottish Government. Guidance on how Modern Apprenticeship data is collected and reported is available on the SDS Corporate Website entitled MA Quality and Methodology. SDS recommends that this document is read prior to any further analysis, to ensure the figures are interpreted correctly. This report contains tables and figures that provide various breakdowns of MA statistics including MA starts by gender, age and level. As programme funding is linked to the age of trainees, all age breakdowns in this report are based on the age of the individual when they commenced their MA, unless stated otherwise. We completed an exercise in 2017/18 to align the majority of MA frameworks to SCQF levels, to support a transition to reporting MA statistics by SCQF level from this financial year (2018/19). We do not include details of MA starts or performance in relation to the contracting or tendering process. Starts and performance information at provider level is very detailed and not appropriate for our statistical reports. Annual training provider performance data is available on our website. This report may refer to a percentage increase or decrease of certain values and this refers to the relative change between two numbers e.g. starts increased by 5% compared to the same quarter last year. However, the report may also refer to a percentage point (pp) increase or decrease, which refers to the absolute change between two percentages e.g. the achievement rate for MAs aged 25 or over increased by +8 pp. Percentages in this report may not sum to 100% due to rounding. 4

In this report, MA frameworks are classified as belonging to an SDS assigned occupational grouping. Details of the frameworks that are assigned to each occupational grouping are available on the SDS corporate website. The report provides a summary of the key points up to the end of quarter 1 2018/19. Further information can be found through the Supplementary Statistics Tables that are available on the SDS website. Any comments or suggestions regarding the content of this report are welcome and can be emailed to: user_feedback@sds.co.uk. 5

3. Key Results Starts As it is relatively early in the financial year, the breakdown of starts by age, level, occupational grouping and equality characteristics is likely to change in subsequent quarters of 2018/19. Note that although quarterly comparisons have been provided below these must be treated with caution. Fluctuations in the demand-led volume of starts at this early stage of the year are expected. By the end of Quarter 1 2018/19: There were 4,126 MA starts. The apprenticeship starts target for 2018/19 is 28,000. The number of MA starts equates to 15% of the 28,000 apprenticeship starts target. At the same point last year, we had made similar progress towards meeting our 2017/18 annual target (13%). For the first time, Graduate Apprenticeships (GAs) will be included in the overall target (it is anticipated that there will be up to 887 GA starts in 2018/19). GAs typically align to the academic year rather than the financial year, therefore we anticipate reporting the GA starts figure in our Q3 2018/19 report. 62% of MA starts were aged 16-24 (-4.2 pp lower than the same point last year) and 38% were aged 25+. The majority of starts were at SCQF level 6 or above (67%), the remaining 33% were at SCQF level 5 and Vocational Qualification (VQ) level 3 1. It is not possible to provide a comparison to the same point last year as SCQF levels are not directly comparable to VQ levels. A breakdown of MA data by level is available in Appendix A. The largest proportion of starts this quarter were in frameworks related to Sport, Health and Social Care (18%), Construction (14%), Hospitality & Tourism (11%), and Retail & Customer Service (11%). Gender: At this early stage in the financial year, 48% of starts were female and 52% were male. Female starts were +2.3 pp higher compared to the same point last year (equivalent to a 20% increase or + 328 starts). 1 This includes individuals following older frameworks. 6

Disability: 14.2% of MA starts self-identified an impairment, health condition or learning difficulty (+5.1 pp increase on the same point last year). This equates to an 80% increase in starts from 322 to 580 (+258). Ethnicity: 2.9% of MA starts self-identified being from a Mixed or Multiple; Asian; African; Caribbean or Black; and Other ethnic group 2, higher than the same point last year (+1.1 pp). 3 This equates to an 89% increase in starts, from 62 to 117 (+55). Care Experience: Our monitoring data shows that 1.9% of MA starts self-identified as care experienced 4 up to the end of quarter 1 2018/19 (around the same as last year, +0.1 pp). In training As at 29 th June 2018: There were 37,084 MAs in training. The majority of those in training (77%) were aged 16-24 (-5.6 pp lower than the same point last year). Due to the change in levelling from VQ to SCQF, there is now a mixture of MAs in training, either working towards an SCQF or VQ levelled qualification. 70% of MAs in training are at VQ level 3 or above, a further 8% are at SCQF level 6 or above. Achievements Up to the end of Quarter 1 2018/19: 4,044 individuals achieved their Modern Apprenticeship (73% of all leavers in Q1, compared to 78% at the same point last year). The highest achievement rates were in the Management (87%), Engineering & Energy (84%) and Transport & Logistics (82%) occupational groupings (excluding those with fewer than 100 leavers). Redundancies 2018/19 up to the end of Quarter 1: 154 Modern Apprentices were made redundant: +61 higher than the same point last year. 2 Ethnic groups aligned with Scottish Government guidance on ethnicity reporting https://www.gov.scot/resource/0039/00394314.pdf. 3 Including white other within this starts figure is 8.3%, +0.7 pp higher than the same point last year. 4 Figure relates to the percentage of starts who answered yes to the question Have you ever been in care? In this instance, care is defined as: foster care, kinship care, residential care or looked after at home. 7

There were 126 approved applications to the Adopt an Apprentice programme enabling former apprentices to complete their training. 5 Note that MAs who are made redundant can continue to positive destinations without the need for Adopt an Apprentice funding. 4. Concluding Remarks This report provides analysis of publicly funded Modern Apprenticeship activity up to the end of Quarter 1 2018/19. Statistics associated with the Modern Apprenticeship programme such as starts, in training, leavers and achievements are provided in summary form. 5 Adopt an Apprentice information is available on the Our Skillsforce website: https://www.ourskillsforce.co.uk/be-inspired/initiatives/adopt-anapprentice/. This figure includes 1 approved application from providers who indicated that they operate in the Oil & Gas sector. 8
