What is an Applied learning programme for 14- to 16-year-olds?
Many 14- to 16-year-olds can be successfully motivated by learning related to an industry sector or involving practical experience outside the normal classroom settings. A range of applied qualifications are available to pupils in this age group through courses provided by local partnerships and taught in local colleges or on employers premises. Many young people follow this path of study, which develops skills and motivation and leads to a range of opportunities for progression.
