National Apprenticeship Week 2026 resources are here!

Taking place from 9^th – 15^th February, National Apprenticeship Week (NAW) brings together the apprenticeship community to celebrate everything that is amazing about apprenticeships.

The first release of our NAW 2026 resources is here, focussed on providing teachers and careers professionals with resources that they can use to increase awareness and enthusiasm about apprenticeships with their whole school or college community.

A great place to start is with The School & College Resource Guide: National Apprenticeship Week 2026, designed to provide you with a useful overview of everything you will need to help you celebrate National Apprenticeship Week in your school or college and is accompanied by a helpful Explainer Film that explains all of the resources on offer in under 3 minutes.

Updated resources released include the new and improved Apprenticeship Assembly Film, which has been made even more concise, without losing any of the brilliant details. It reflects recent changes to apprenticeships and now at 5 minutes long, is perfect for assemblies or form times. It is also a quick and easy watch for anyone who wants to build their apprenticeship knowledge and understanding.

There is also a recently launched Apprenticeship Q&A Display Pack – ideal for creating a vibrant and informative display for students and colleagues alike.

We’re particularly excited to launch our new Classroom Challenge Collection. This is a collection of interactive resources that are perfect for primary, secondary, SEND and home-educated settings. Whether digital or screen-free, at home or in the classroom, these flexible year-round resources will spark curiosity and open young people’s eyes to apprenticeships. The Classroom Challenge Collection will be particularly helpful for NAW, with students being able to enjoy activities such as Skills Sudoku, Say What You See, Logo Labyrinth, Job Jumble and more.

“We know how important it is to create fun, informative and up-to-date resources that busy careers professionals and teachers can use quickly and easily. We also do our best to ensure they are available well in advance of important events like National Apprenticeship Week to maximise planning time. We hope that the resources released today are used by as many people as possible and welcome any feedback!”  said Helen Twomey, Schools and Resources Manager, Amazing Apprenticeships.

A second release of resources will take place on 24th November. This includes a brand-new student activity for each of our 22 subject-led resources, meaning each subject has 2 student activities, a teacher guide, lesson slides and a subject poster highlighting apprenticeships linked to the subject.

Current resources are now available via the NAW page on the Amazing Apprenticeships website. With later releases being announced via NavigATE, our Schools and Colleges monthly newsletter, sign up here so you don’t miss out.
