The government says the strategy will offer working families across the country new opportunities such as highly skilled engineering positions or apprenticeships for young people.

The funding, according to ministers, is usually provided for apprenticeships with arms firms.

"Our students go on to study at top universities, secure competitive apprenticeships, and enter industries that are in real need of skilled workers," she said.
