Inquiry examines the role of employers
21 January 2019
The list of roles for employers in education and skills continues to grow, but what is working well and where are the tensions in the system?
A new inquiry from the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) for Youth Employment will consider these questions, focusing on the asks of employers by Government, particularly around T Levels, apprenticeships, work experience and careers education.
As the scale of employer support grows, the inquiry will explore whether all young people are able to access the quality support they need from employers. It will ask whether employers are at saturation point and how prepared schools and colleges are to engage with employers.
The inquiry will be an opportunity for businesses to share their experiences, and to explore what might be done at a local and national level to support employers.
The deadline for submissions to the APPG inquiry is 1 March 2019.
