"The problem in my experience is that the learners must
have passed GCSE at levels A to C. Some colleges will
support them to study and get to the right level and
so will many employers, But others won’t. . Thera are
many who can’t apply themselves to academic learning
but would make terrific plumbers, electricians, gas
engineers etc. "

The probem nowadays is there are numerous regulations
which need to be adhered to such as the IEE Wiring Regulations.
Seventeenth edition, to say nothing of the service
manuals which presumably accompany each and every
model of boiler. Added to the fact that nowadays
anyone engaged in such trades will need to be
adequately insured.

Looking at old photos of workshops in the early 20th
century it wasn't uncommon to have gas pipes
servicing overhead lights running down the middle
of the room at just over head height. And all
probably installed by a fitter employed by a
local hardware shop.

But sadly, those days are no more.
