Lord Sugar has confirmed the BBC will not be making any more series of Young Apprentice.
In response to a tweet from a fan enquiring about its return, Lord Sugar answered: "No BBC have decided to stop it."
The show sees 16 and 17-year-old entrepreneurs competing to win a £25,000 cash investment to fund their business plans.
At the end of the third series, the BBC said it would not return.
The show first aired in 2010, but last summer there were rumours that Young Apprentice would not be renewed.
The BBC has declined to comment.
However, Lord Sugar did say the 'adult' series will be back in late spring.
Ashleigh Porter-Exley, 17, won Young Apprentice series three
