We have long had high levels of youth unemployment locally and in the UK as a whole whilst many employers have voiced concerns about the employability skills and work readiness of young people leaving our schools, colleges and universities. The D2N2 LEP have quite rightly put skills at the top of their agenda because without having a good supply of skilled people we will not be able to drive forward the economic prosperity that our two cities and counties deserve. The “employability skills” asked for by the eight priority sectors whose growth and development are essential to continue to drive economic growth of the D2N2 area are almost identical yet we still have a substantial mismatch between the employability skills of those young people leaving our schools and post-16 training programmes, regardless of whether they plan to go on to higher education or go directly into employment, and the skills being sought by employers. For a successful local economy, businesses and schools/colleges need to work far more closely together – we need each other. I see a clear analogy between the way institutions and business should work together and how a supply chain works in manufacturing industry, where partnership working between companies in the supply chain ensures a win-win outcome. The D2N2 Employability Framework provides the methodology by which we can significantly improve the employability and life skills of our young people regardless of academic ability or which career

    LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England.

The industry’s greatest period came in the late sixteenth century, after technical improvements and an expansion of the trade, and lasted until the late eighteenth century. This is an examination of the working of the industry and of developments during these two centuries. From the sixteenth century onwards there is a large body of written material arising from the way in which the industry was organised. This book is largely based on such documentary evidence preserved in the Derbyshire Record Office and the Derbyshire County Library, in particular the archive accumulated over several centuries by the Gell family of Hopton, now in the DRO, and the microfilm copy of the Wolley manuscripts in the Local Studies Library at Matlock.

  • Briefing on Sixth Form Provision
    Rep 680 Agenda item 7 Schools Forum – 10 th November 2016 School Sixth Forms - The 14-19 landscape and the diversification of School / College provision 1. Purpose To inform Schools Forum of the challenges faced by School Sixth Forms following changes in Government policy and funding, including the growth of University Technical Colleges (UTCs), Studio Schools, Free Schools and Technical Academies. 2. Policy background The school system has changed significantly over the last five years, with changes to Government funding of Post-16 education in particular being a considerable challenge. Not all the change is recent; Academies, UTCs and Studio Schools for instance were all around in various stages of development prior to 2010. The current school sector, however, is designed to give parents greater choice and schools greater freedom. Currently there exists: • Over 2,000 Academies now open in England • 291 Free Schools now open and 141 in the pipeline – DfE target 500 by 2020 • 34 Studio Schools now open with one in the pipeline • 45 UTCs open. In addition, since September 2013, GFE has been able to offer full time provision to 14-16yrs olds which adds more competition into the education system. 3. Definitions for these new types of organisations • Academies – Primary and Secondary Schools who are no longer part of the Local Authority are directly funded by the EFA and have additional responsibilities. • University Technical Colleges – Offering provision to students aged 14-19yrs, specialising in technical / vocational studies. Provision is full time, combining practical and academic studies which are delivered in work related context. A UTC has a maximum of 600 students.
