Yesterday the Government published its response to professor Wolf’s report on vocational education. The Government has endorsed all of Professor Wolf’s recommendations and has committed to ensuring that every student studies only the best vocational qualifications to ensure that they can progress into either higher education or employment.
The Government have also pledged its commitment to the creation of further University Technical Colleges (UTC), something which has been welcomed by Lord Baker who has been the champion of growth in this area for some time.
