Vocational Training

Question
What recent assessment he has made of trends in the take-up of vocational training.

I can report that the latest figures show that the number of national and Scottish vocational qualifications awarded continues to rise, up 36 per cent. since 1997. Our wider strategy for vocational training was set out in ““World Class Skills””, the Command Paper published last week.
