From September, 200 vocational A Levels will be offered to students targeted at boosting skills most desirable to employers.
The new qualifications will include areas such as agriculture, engineering and IT, and will be supported by the likes of Siemens, BAE and Canon.
The qualifications are being called upon to “bridge the gap between education and employment and to ensure young people are prepared to compete in the global jobs market”. Says Mr Hancock, Skills Minister.
Can we trust the value that these new qualifications will bring to today’s students?
