Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many employers in the (a) public and (b) private sector offered apprenticeships in (i) East Ham constituency, (ii) the London Borough of Newham and (iii) England in (A) 2010, (B) 2011, (C) 2012 and (D) 2013.

Numbers of public or private sector employers offering apprenticeships are not counted by the Department. We do publish information on workplaces offering apprenticeships, which counts the number of individual workplaces at site level. However one employer may have multiple sites. This can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/570133/apprenticeships-workplaces-by-region.xlsx

The latest data on apprenticeship starts by constituency and region can be found in the supplementary tables accompanying the Statistical First Release SFA/SFR36, published on 17 November 2016: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/570129/learner-participation-outcomes-and-level-of-highest-qualification-data-tables-November16.xls
