  • The party plans a £2,000 retention bonus for SMEs that keep apprentices employed for at least two years and aims to prioritize vocational and technical education funding.
  • To fund these measures, Reform proposes ending student loans for overseas students and cutting degrees such as gender studies and golf course studies, which it describes as lacking value.
  • Reform UK urged young people to consider apprenticeships over university, criticizing the current system for leaving graduates in debt and struggling economically.
