well, it's possible that the BBC has entirely misrepresented this scheme or that I've misunderstood, in which case some of my worries may be unfounded. While work experience as part of formal education is a very good thing in my opinion, companies involved in it have always been in the background, happy with relatively cheap labour in return for their on-the-job training. In which case, what's so different about this scheme? Just what is the role of McDonalds? It still seems to me that their own internal courses are being used in place of college courses and therefore it is, indeed, a McQualification. Will they also be getting a big wedge of cash from the government in order to fund these courses?

I'm skeptical of companies like McDonald's being in any way involved in education. I'm skeptical of their motives - they provide school books for under 16s in the States where McDonald's brand is promoted at every opportunity.
