We welcome these new plans. Exciting & inclusive options open to all learners.
A year or two studying at Further Education allows the learner, often only 17 or 18, to take a year out to explore a topic, get more equipped for college and/or work, gain practical skills & much more.
Determined to ensure students have more choice & information. This culture of a “points race” needs to be challenged. So many different ways of people getting to where they want to. Tomorrow we will commit to creating an integrated third level system
