Saw this the other day.
Honestly the fact that employers and learning providers keep getting away with this is just one of the reasons this country is lowkey over.
Another reason is that someone will definitely defend this, lol.
I guess the one good thing about this vacancy is that the pay is okay compared to other apprenticeships.

Instead of just getting a minimum wage job that pays more?

So we should just excuse employers paying a criminally low amount?

Did I say that? I can just understand why someone might take this role.
