Recommendation 21

21 Paragraph: 69

There are various routes to becoming an HGV driver.

Conclusion
There are various routes to becoming an HGV driver. The sector does not find it difficult to recruit new entrants. It has struggled to make apprenticeships work as an entry point, because the role does not fit within the parameters set by the Department for Education’s various arm’s-length bodies such as the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education and the Education and Skills Funding Agency.
