	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/09/2015 answer text <p>The government wants to see improvements to the extent and quality of the careers advice, guidance and inspiration that young people receive throughout their education, helping them to be better prepared for the world of work and able to take advantage of the opportunities available to them. Children who can see the relationship between what they are learning and the possibilities it opens up for them in later life are likely to be far more motivated to achieve and we are committed to broadening their aspirations to do this.</p><p> </p><p>It is not easy for children of primary age to make a connection between what they learn in the classroom and how it relates to the world of work. The government is delighted to support Primary Futures, a programme which is intended to change that. The national initiative, led by the Education and Employers Taskforce and the National Association of Head Teachers, enables volunteers from a wide range of professions to visit primary schools to inspire pupils.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Nash question first answered 25/09/2015 13:30:41 answering member 4270 label Biography information for Lord Nash
