the original content of the 1973 TPS manual1 was written by
the staff2 of Toyota Motor Corp. (OMCD - Operations Management Consulting Division.
By 1970, Toyota had a fairly stable production system internally and they made a decision to
assist suppliers by sharing their knowledge and skills. To do this, Toyota created a special
internal improvement group called Production Research Division (later renamed Operations
Management Consulting Division – OMCD)
his 1973 manual was also used as course materials by Ohno and his team – the Japanese
Management Association compiled their workshop materials and released it as a book in the
1978. Productivity Press translated it and released it as Kanban: Just-in-time at Toyota in
1986. While much of the Productivity Press book consists of the same materials as the 1973
TPS Manual, it is not presented in the same order.

3. Introduction
This guide provides parents/guardians with an overview of what can be expected
throughout this exciting stage in your son/daughter’s training.
What is an Apprenticeship?
Apprenticeships are an excellent way of gaining qualifi cations and workplace
experience. As an employee, your son/daughter can earn as they learn and gain
practical skills from the workplace.
Anyone living in England who is over 16 years old and is not in full-time education
can apply.
Apprenticeships can take between one and four years to complete depending on the
level of Apprenticeship, the apprentices’ ability and the industry sector.
Programme Funding
Apprenticeships are fully funded by the Skills Funding Agency, Scottish Enterprise
and Welsh Assembly Government in England, Scotland and Wales respectively, for
apprentices under the age of 19.

Programme Length
Programme lengths vary depending on the sector and subject. Overall most of
Pathway Apprenticeships last on average 18 month.
Your son/daughter will be expected to attend training and assessment sessions either
organised in the workplace or at a Pathway College organised location on a regular
basis.
They will have to do independent research to support their programme, through the
internet or other means.
Behaviour
Whilst on the programme, Apprentices are representing Pathway and in some cases
employers. Therefore they will be expected to conduct themselves in an appropriate
manner. Clear guidance is given at their induction.
Alcohol and Illegal Drugs
Pathway has a zero tolerance policy towards underage alcohol consumption and the
possession and taking of illegal drugs or substances.
Apprentices under the age of 18 are reminded that the purchase and consumption of
alcohol whilst attending or undergoing training is not permitted.
Any Apprentice found to be in possession of illegal drugs whilst on an apprenticeship
programme or attending Pathway College organised events will be sent home and
further disciplinary action will be taken.
Sickness
We encourage Apprentices to keep healthy and happy however we also appreciate
that from time to time Apprentices are invariably sick and therefore unable to attend
college. Your son/daughter will be informed of our absence reporting procedures and
also types of sickness where we would encourage them to stay away from college.
3. Where there are periods of frequent absence we will investigate the reasons behind
5. • Where there are periods of frequent absence we will investigate the reasons behind
this as it could impact on your son/daughters ability to complete the programme.
• In the event of sickness during training we will ensure appropriate medical
attention is sought.
Apprenticeship Information
Disciplinary & Grievance
• Whilst every eff ort is made to ensure all apprentices are following the rules as
discussed at the induction, sometimes due to circumstances it is necessary to
discipline them. In your sons/daughters Apprentice Handbook you will fi nd the
rules around levels of disciplinary and what breaches in regulations may necessitate
disciplinary action to be taken
• There may also be occasions where your son/daughter may need to raise a grievance
for a number of reasons, again this is fully explained to them at the induction.
Apprentice Reviews
Pathway will review all apprentices on our programme at 8 week intervals. The purpose
of these reviews is to identify progress made and set targets for further progression
on the programme. It is also an opportunity for your son/daughter to feedback to
us how they feel the programme is going and whether they would like additional
support if appropriate. Parents/Guardians will be invited to attend these reviews if
they so wish. Attendance at the reviews will be an action for your son/daughter to
organise.
Wages
Whilst on their Apprenticeship your son/daughter will be employed from day one
and will receive a wage as determined at their interview but it will not be less than
the minimum wage Apprentices.
4.
6. Equality & Diversity
Pathway is committed to Equality and Diversity and recognises its responsibilities
with regard to the following Acts:
The Equality Act 2010, which encompasses the following acts: Race Relations Act
• Sex Discrimination Act
• Equal Pay Act
• Disability Discrimination Act
• Employment Equality Regulations
• The Children Act 2004
We will promote a working environment that is free from harassment and unlawful
discrimination. All employees and apprentices will receive equal and fair treatment
irrespective of race, colour, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation, material
or family status, age, disability, ethnicity or national origin.
All employees are required to demonstrate a commitment to Equality and Diversity
through their daily work practices and to challenge behaviors and actions that are
against the Pathway policy. An employee or apprentice found to be in violation of
the Equality and Diversity policy will be dealt with through the company discipline
policy.
Hours of Work/Holidays
All apprentices are employed for a minimum of 30 hours per week under an
employment contract. They will be subject to the employer’s rules and regulations
related to holidays.
Health & Safety
Pathway and all employers have a legal responsibility to ensure they provide a safe
working environment.
Pathway will take all reasonable steps to ensure the Health and Safety of all students,
staff and visitors within our premises and employer premises through the prevention
of accidents and ill health within the working environment. All Health and Safety
legislation will be followed rigorously in accordance with the Health and Safety at
Work Act 1974.
As an Apprentice, your son/daughter is entitled to the same protection under the
Health and Safety law as any other employed person. In addition to this, they also
5. have a legal obligation to obey safety rules
7. Final Note
We want your son/daughter to really enjoy and learn from their time on the
Apprenticeship programme and we will do everything we can to ensure their
expectations are met.
If you do have any further comments/questions either now or at any stage in your
sons/daughters Apprenticeship, please do not hesitate to contact Pathway using the
