They are the most important subjects for those going into apprenticeships, especially with the way the whole thing has changed and developed in recent years. I agree with Mr. McLoughlin that the guidance counsellors do not push apprenticeships, although it depends on the school. If you are in a vocational school, they might but that is a big "Might" with a big "M". However, in regular secondary schools, they do not push apprenticeships. Is Mr. McLoughlin telling me that there is a missing link as regards encouraging people to take up apprenticeships? Am I hearing that correctly?
