The Rt Hon Gavin Williamson MP Secretary of State for Education Department for Education 20 Great Smith Street Westminster London, SW1P 3BT 6th July 2020 Dear Mr Williamson, This September, 800,000 young people will be leaving schools, colleges and universities, hoping to join the labour market. In addition, many young people that were due to head to university this year are considering withdrawing due to Covid-19. With 8.4 million people already furloughed and uncertain about their futures, it is likely that young people with little work experience behind them will face unprecedented struggles in the labour market. The quality of career education and guidance in schools and colleges has been improving in recent years. Nonetheless, Covid-19 and the lockdown add additional barriers to delivering career education and guidance in schools and other education settings. Meanwhile those young people who are not in education have very limited access to career guidance and career guidance services for adults are increasingly stretched. We are therefore calling on the Government to publicly commit to a Career Guidance Guarantee so that everyone aged 16-19 in an education setting, those leaving the education system, those who are already NEET, and adults who are unemployed, will have access to quality personal career guidance to help them move them on to further education destinations, employment or to additional training and apprenticeships. High quality career education and guidance, including the opportunity to speak one-to-one with a careers professional, is now more important than ever in preparing young people for the world of work, supporting adults to manage career transitions and better aligning careers aspirations with labour market demand. Between July and December, the UK will be facing an unprecedented period of turnover in its labour market. Young people will be leaving education and making key decisions about their futures just as the furlough scheme is coming to an end and redundancies are starting to take place, reducing opportunities. Meanwhile, widening participation places are being frozen across UK universities, meaning that the most disadvantaged young people who have been thrown off track by COVID-19, may have removed university as an option altogether. It is therefore crucial that all young people have access to personal career guidance to help them to access the opportunities available to them. Through a Career Guidance Guarantee we are asking the government to provide a short-term fund which would ensure that the relevant agencies, services and providers could take on additional careers professionals to engage with young people and deliver regular, timely support where necessary.1 This fund would allow those that need it most to access high quality personal career guidance, enabling them to make informed choices and make the most of the opportunities available to them. 1 A detailed proposal with costings is set out in https://www.thecdi.net/write/An_emergency_career_development_plan_to_maintain_productivity_and_progression_post-Covid-19_CDPG.pdf We need to act now to reach those most in need of support and guidance. A Career Guidance Guarantee is a critical step in a much needed joined-up approach. To be impactful it should be implemented alongside an extension of the catch-up provision to include 16-19 year olds and a commitment to create employment and training opportunity as part of an Opportunity Guarantee.2 We believe in a society where all citizens are supported to find the education, employment and training opportunities that are right for them. Where individuals can fulfil their own potential and realise their career aspirations, they will also be able to contribute to our national prosperity and the reconstruction of the country after Covid-19.

To understand why we think this, we need to do two things. Firstly, we need to look more closely at where precarious work is concentrated and understand who the casualised staff are. Secondly, we need to understand the impact that it has on teaching staff and on their work. This report is the first to provide evidence, from casualised staff themselves, showing the real costs of employing staff on precarious contracts.

  • REDHILL REVIEW March 2019

    REDHILL REVIEW March 2019

    theRedhillAcademy newsletter April 2019 Message from the Head of School The Easter holiday is almost upon us and I know students are looking forward to a well-earned break. It has been a busy term with a range of activities taking place and mock exams for the older students as the real exam period looms closer. All subject areas have been working hard on exam preparation and the students themselves have shown a real sense of purpose and a determination to succeed which will serve them well in the weeks ahead. As part of the assessment requirements, we have been treated to a variety of Performing Arts practicals and audiences have seen incredible talent in Dance, Drama and Music. March saw the return to school of many of our students who left the Academy at the end of Year 13 to pursue the next stage of their education at university or on higher level apprenticeships. We felt extremely proud of the incredible things they have achieved and it was a pleasure to reward them with their certificates alongside our own rising stars in Key Stage 3 and 4. Highlights of the evening included the awarding of the Melissa Ellis Award for Achievement in Modern Foreign Languages to Mollie Smith and the John de Boer Trophy for Outstanding Achievement at Key Stage 5 to Roma Ellis. We were also treated to a thoroughly engaging presentation from the former Olympian and European champion Richard Buck who gripped everyone with his experiences of the highs and lows of 400m running. Finally, I wanted to let you know that the Redhill 70th birthday celebrations will now take place on June 20th as opposed to the original date of May 1st.

    Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications

    Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications Jessica R. Adolino, Ph. D. Professor of Political Science James Madison University Draft prepared for presentation at the European Studies Association Annual Meeting May 9-12, 2019, Denver, Colorado Please do not cite or distribute without author’s permission. By almost any measure, since the immediate aftermath of the June 16, 2016 Brexit referendum, the British government has been in a state of chaos. The turmoil began with then- Prime Minister David Cameron’s resignation on June 17 and succession by Theresa May within days of the vote. Subsequently, May’s decision to call a snap election in 2017 and the resulting loss of the Conservatives’ parliamentary majority cast doubt on her leadership and further stirred up dissension in her party’s ranks. Perhaps more telling, and the subject of this paper, is the unprecedented number of ministers1—from both senior and junior ranks—that quit the May government over Brexit-related policy disagreements2. Between June 12, 2017 and April 3, 2019, the government witnessed 45 resignations, with high-profile secretaries of state and departmental ministers stepping down to return to the backbenches. Of these, 34 members of her government, including 9 serving in the Cabinet, departed over issues with some aspect of Brexit, ranging from dissatisfaction with the Prime Minister’s Withdrawal Agreement, to disagreements about the proper role of Parliament, to questions about the legitimacy of the entire Brexit process. All told, Theresa May lost more ministers, and at a more rapid pace, than any other prime minister in modern times.

    The Rt Hon Gavin Williamson CBE MP Secretary of State for Education The Rt Hon Nick Gibb MP Minister of State for Schools 19th July 2021 Dear Secretary of State, Dear Minister, Launch of the National Food Strategy – Recommendations for Food Education “It is time to take food education seriously” We write to you as a network of leading food education providers, who earlier this year came together for a round table to contribute to the National Food Strategy. This network provides the food education material used by schools across the country; it teaches or supports the teaching of food education in schools; it trains the teachers; and it builds children’s knowledge of food systems, farming and the countryside and sustainable food production. Our work is almost entirely funded through non-profit fundraising, grants and donations; few of us get any money from government. Without this work, food education in schools would not happen. We are proud to see that the core recommendations put forward by this network have been included in the National Food Strategy. It highlights that culinary skills and knowledge have declined across every social class since convenience food became widely available. And it calls for food education to be central to the national curriculum, as a key reform to help escape the ‘Junk Food Cycle’ to protect the NHS and support reforms to build a better food system for a healthier nation. We urge the Department to ensure that the NFS recommendations are accepted by government. Food education is on the curriculum but there needs to be the training, budget and resources to allow teachers to deliver it well.

    Transport Policy Statement for Students Aged16-18 in Further Education and Continuing Students Aged 19 and Over

    Local Authority Transport Partnership Policy Statement 2014/15 Transport policy statement for students aged16-18 in further education and continuing students aged 19 and over Department Responsible: Children Adults & Families 1. Summary of Policy Statement and Main Objectives (this section should give an overview/statement of intent of what the LA’s transport policy is and what the subsequent desired outcomes are). This policy statement sets out the way in which South Tyneside Council has decided to exercise its powers and duties in relation to the provision of school and college transport for learners aged 16-19 in accordance with Section 509 of the Education Act 1996, as amended by Section 83 of the Education and Inspections Act 2006. The policy seeks to ensure that no South Tyneside learner is prevented from continuing in further education due to lack of transport provision or lack of financial support with transport costs. It outlines the provision of transport schemes and assistance for post 16 learners who live and study in South Tyneside or those learners who live in South Tyneside and attend an educational establishment outside of the Borough if it is the nearest provider offering the appropriate course. This document sets out the current policy of South Tyneside Council, which it should be noted could be subject to change in the future. Therefore, this policy does not amount to a legitimate expectation that any service currently offered will continue to be offered. This policy is based on the following key principles: • The promotion of increased independence and social inclusion of young people, recognising the context of their age and ability.
