Film: Apprenticeship Levy
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if her Department will bring forward legislative proposals to include employers’ running costs for providing visual effects and post-production placements in the Apprenticeship Levy.
Answered by Janet Daby
This government is transforming the Apprenticeship Levy into a new Growth and Skills Levy. The new levy will build on the apprenticeships programme to create more opportunities for learners and give employers greater flexibility to address critical skill shortages in their workforce, which will help drive economic growth.
Skills England will be responsible for identifying training that is eligible for the Growth and Skills Levy, ensuring that levy-funded training delivers value for money and meets the needs of businesses.
The department is working across government to develop the design of the Growth and Skills Levy and will set out more detail in due course.
