The updated provider access legislation is here! It has been strengthened by specifying that schools must provide at least six encounters for all their students and setting out new requirements the encounters themselves need to meet. We can support you: bit.ly/3GaxuWA

Fantastic visit today to @TheMcrCollege to learn about the transformational@impact T-Levels have had on students. A highlight was visiting the T-Level Healthcare students on their mock ward with patients!
Thanks to @tobyperkinsmp for visiting @TheMcrCollege Openshaw campus this morning to talk T levels and technical education - a really positive discussion, followed by a tour of the construction and health departments

So pleased to see Lord Blunkett’s paper on Learning and Skills build upon the strong foundations of the Gatsby Benchmark Framework, Careers Leaders and national Career Hub network. This work doesn’t stop at age18. We need lifelong careers guidance to support lifelong learning

Important research out from the @suttontrust. Great to see recognition of improvements, but there is a lot more to do. We couldn’t agree more with their recommendations around the value of Careers Hubs and giving Careers Leaders enough time to do the job. suttontrust.com/our-research…
