The theme of this year’s National Apprenticeships Week is “Skills for Life”; a concept that has been a core part of our work with apprentices at the National Theatre [NT] for over a decade.
The NT has been training apprentices since 2012. Over this period, we have recruited 50 entry-level apprentices in 17 different departments, upskilled 17 employees, and recruited four apprentices as part of the government’s pilot Portable Flexi-Job Apprenticeships scheme – this is in conjunction with the Royal Opera House, Ambassador Theatre Group and White Light.
