- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what recent discussions he has had with the Chancellor of the Exchequer on the effect of the UK leaving the EU on the recruitment of foreign language support staff in the UK.
- Answer
-
Department officials are working closely with the Department for Exiting the European Union and the Home Office, including on matters of educational workforce supply needs as we leave the EU and move to a new UK migration framework. Regular discussions are held at ministerial level regarding EU withdrawal.
The government has commissioned the Migration Advisory Committee to gather evidence on patterns of EU migration including education workforces and the role of migration in the wider economy, ahead of our exit from the EU. We have welcomed their interim report, and look forward to their full report in the autumn, before coming to any conclusions on what the future arrangements will mean for educational workforces post EU exit.
