<p>The Government is committed to improving social mobility, as set out in our social
mobility strategy, ‘Opening Doors, Breaking Barriers', published in 2011. The strategy
sets out a plan for improving social mobility across the whole country, incorporating
polices such as early education for two year olds from lower income families, the
Pupil Premium and the Youth Contract.</p><p>To assess the progress of this strategy,
the Government has committed to reporting regularly on a set of key indicators to
track closely whether we are moving in the right direction on social mobility; I chair
a group of key Ministers to oversee delivery of the strategy, and the Government has
created a new Social Mobility and Child Poverty Commission.</p><p>These indicators
were last updated in November last year, and will be updated again shortly.</p><p>
