Closer ties with further education

Apprenticeships Further education Skills
A Skills and Education Group has been launched to bring schools and colleges closer together. Paul Eeles says that we must find common ground to provide the best possible post-16 pathways

There is currently something of a conflict in the relationship between the secondary and further education sectors.
Successive governments have implemented policies that have left the education of our young people open to market forces which are unhelpful to both schools and colleges, and make it increasingly difficult for them to work cohesively together.

This month, the Skills and Education Group is launching to bring our sectors closer together.

The partnership between ABC Awards, ASDAN and emfec aims to use our resources to bridge the gap between schools and colleges in a new and unique way, creating a dynamic, new educational philosophy for the 21st century.
