Welcome... THE END OF TERM IS ALMOST UPON US, AND WE ARE EDGING CLOSER TO THE SUMMER-BREAK. HOWEVER, THIS IS LIKELY TO BE A BREAK LIKE NO OTHER. WHEREAS THIS TIME HAS TRADITIONALLY BEEN USED FOR RELAXATION AND REGENERATION,
OUR
EXPERIENCES
THIS
YEAR
HAVE
RAISED
THE
PROSPECT
OF
USING
IT
FOR
ADDITIONAL
ACTIVITIES. IT IS DIFFICULT TO PREDICT ACCURATELY HOW INDUSTRY AND HIGHER EDUCATION WILL RESPOND IN THE MONTHS AHEAD. RUMOURS AND SPECULATION ABOUND, BUT I THINK A COUPLE OF KEY TRENDS ARE EMERGING, NAMELY,
IT
IS
LIKELY,
CERTAINLY
IN
THE
SHORT
TERM,
THAT
THERE
WILL
BE
AN
ECONOMIC
BACKLASH
TO
ECONOMIC
INACTIVITY, PERHAPS RESULTING IN RECESSION
TRADITIONALLY, IN TIMES LIKE THIS, COMPANIES MIGHT REDUCE THE NUMBER OF JOB VACANCIES AVAILABLE.
IF THIS HAPPENS, THERE MAY BE A SURGE IN APPLICATIONS FOR UNIVERSITY NEXT YEAR AS STUDENTS TRY TO ‘RIDE OUT’
ECONOMIC
DIFFICULTIES,
AND
SOME
UNIVERSITIES
MAY
FUEL
THIS
TREND
BY
DEMONSTRATING
MORE
FLEXIBILITY IN TERMS OF THE GRADES THEY WILL ACCEPT. THE BIG QUESTION FOR APPLICANTS MIGHT BE CENTRED AROUND WHETHER THE UNIVERSITY EXPERIENCE WILL BE WHAT THEY HOPED FOR, GIVEN THAT BLENDED
LEARNING
(DELIVERY
OF
TEACHING
TO
SOME
EXTENT
VIA
COMPUTER)
MAY
SOME LEVEL OF
BECOME
THE
NORM?
STUDENTS MIGHT ALSO RECOGNISE THAT SOME COURSES MAY BECOME MORE COMPETITIVE TO SECURE A PLACE, PARTICULARLY AS THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS DEFERRING ENTRY MAY GO UP THIS YEAR.
THE GOVERNMENT HAS STATED THAT IT IS STILL KEEN TO SUPPORT THE GROWTH OF APPRENTICESHIPS, AND TO DEVELOP STRONGER PARITY BETWEEN THIS PROGRESSION ROUTE, AND HIGHER
EDUCATION. WILL THEY INCLUDE
FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO COMPANIES AS PART OF THIS PUSH? PERHAPS, OR PERHAPS NOT (GIVEN THE DOUBTLESS, HIGH POST-COVID RECOVERY BILL). EITHER WAY, COMPANIES MAY RESPOND TO THE GOVERNMENT’S INITIATIVES WITH
AN
INCREASE
IN
REDUCED WAGES THAT
APPRENTICESHIPS
FOR
YOUNG
PEOPLE,
BUT
THIS
COST
MIGHT
FURTHER-EASE THE FINANCIAL BURDEN ON STRUGGLING FIRMS.
BE
ACCOMPANIED
BY
CYNICS MIGHT ARGUE
THAT YOUNG PEOPLE ARE AN EASY TARGET TO HIT WITH LOW WAGES (THE NATIONAL MINIMUM WAGE IS ALREADY SET AT A LOWER RATE FOR THIS GROUP.)
HOWEVER, WITHOUT INTERVENTION TO SUPPORT FINANCIAL STRAINS, I
THINK IT IS POSSIBLE THAT APPRENTICESHIPS WILL GO UP, BUT FOR EXISTING STAFF, AND THIS MIGHT RESULT IN REDUCED OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE,
AND INCREASED COMPETITION FOR THOSE VACANCIES THAT DO
GO LIVE,.
THE COMMON THREAD OF ALL THE ABOVE SCENARIOS IS THAT SUCCESSFUL PROGRESSION IN THE FUTURE, MAY REQUIRE
STUDENTS
TO
SEEK
OUT
ADDITIONAL
ACTIVITIES
THEMSELVES APPEAR MORE COMPETITIVE FOR ADVERTISED EXPLOIT WHAT IS ON
IN
ADDITION
POSTS.
TO
THEIR
QUALIFICATIONS,
TO
MAKE
THE SUMMER-BREAK IS THE IDEAL TIME TO
OFFER VIA THE INTERNET, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE ALL STUDENTS TO MAKE THE MOST OF
THIS OPPORTUNITY TO THINK POSITIVELY, ACT APPROPRIATELY, AND BE INSPIRED TO PURSUE ACTIVITIES THAT WILL STRENGTHEN THEIR CHANCE OF FUTURE SUCCESS. I HOPE THIS E-MAG WILL GIVE YOU SOME INSPIRATION AND IDEAS OF WHAT YOU CAN DO TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS.
