  14. GCSE Attainment

  15. Apprenticeships • In 2009/10 – 4% Level 2 Apprentices; 9% Level 3 Apprentices in SEMTA. Does not meet the future need of the sector; • Potential increase in future take-up – University tuition fee increases; • Govt to expand adult apprenticeships places by up to 75,000 by 2014/15.

  16. Prospects? • Impact from CSR - welfare cuts & VAT reduce consumer spending affecting lower end manufacturing. • Cuts in Strategic Defence Review • Manufacturing ‘back in fashion’ with Govt • Positives - Budget 2011 to assist UK’s Manufacturing sector - funding help for companies through the UK-wide Green Investment Bank and the protection of the Science budget.

  17. Prospects? • University Technical College • Blackburn College STEM • Burnley UCLAN • Technology and Innovation Centres [TIC] • Enterprise zones • RGF • Apprenticeships • Business Growth Fund - SME

  18. Prospects? UK Exports Market Top 20 plus BRIC Growing appetite for Western products Big opportunities for PL manufacturers Source ONS £million

  19. Strengths Established manufacturing base; Aerospace cluster; NW Aerospace Alliance; 10year+ aerospace contracts including BAE Jointfighter aircraft till 2035 Weaknesses Economic outlook and dependency on Government spending Low Skills base / educational attainment Future skills and training Poor housing offer Weak Transport links Opportunities Globalisation into new market Currency fluctuations Adaptable manufacturing SME Low carbon economy Apprenticeships International controlled migration Forming alliances and partnerships across sub regions University Technical College Blackburn College STEM Centre / Bly UCLAN Threats Globalisation and innovation from other countries; Remanufacturing from the emerging economies Cuts to Research and Innovation Overseas company relocations to get closer to new markets Business relocations due to controlled migration

  20. Next Steps… • Continued dialogue with manufacturers and industry experts; • ESB • Apprenticeships (clear targets) • Improved IAG • Simplify current ‘cocktail of funding’ • Explore potential for more ATA/GTAs • Regenerate/LAs • Modern premises/suitable sites • RGF bid submitted “PL200” • Innovation/Business support/Access to finance • Education • Raise PL’s manufacturing profile nationally • Next study - construction sector
