answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/11/2016 answer text <p>An increase in university graduates does not need to come at the expense of other routes into highly skilled employment. Nearly 60% of the country’s working age population still do not have a Level 4+ qualification. It is also not a stark choice for young people to choose between technical or academic education, as they can and should choose the right track for them.</p><p>The Skills Plan, in responding to the Sainsbury recommendations, makes clear that technical education must always be about developing the skills, knowledge and behaviours required for a specific occupation. This Government is focused on strengthening the education system to enable everybody to achieve their potential and to ensure that once and for all, we address the gap in skills at technical and higher technical levels that affects the nation’s productivity.</p> answering member printed Viscount Younger of Leckie question first answered 08/11/2016 15:51:36 answering member 4169 label Biography information for Viscount Younger of Leckie

It should be noted that a small number of ‘comprehensive’ schools use an element of selection in their admissions at the secondary phase, and that many schools may set eligibility criteria for admissions post-16 or for entry to particular courses at key stage 5. Equivalent figures for students in state-funded mainstream boarding schools are given.
