This report summarises points raised by thirty employers from the land, construction and water industries, when they came together over the course of three summits at the Gatsby Foundation in spring 2019 to discuss the future of higher technical education.
A report, co-funded by Gatsby and The Careers & Enterprise Company, based on a survey of 750 Careers leaders in secondary schools in England which took place in March and April 2019. The role of the Careers Leader is the cornerstone of ensuring that every young person has the career guidance they need. The government’s Careers Strategy recognised the importance of this role and signalled a major shift in the prominence of career guidance in schools and colleges. The schools of the Careers Leaders who participated are broadly representative of all state-funded secondary schools in England, including special schools.
This report commissioned by the Gatsby Foundation and authored by Professor Paul Lewis, Economics Professor at King's College London, explores the direct and important contributions technicians make to both radical and incremental innovation in advanced manufacturing in the UK.
In February 2017 we commissioned London Economics to explore the relative benefits associated with level 4 and 5 STEM based qualifications. This report analysed the lifetime labour market returns (to the individual and the public purse) associated with higher education at levels 4 and 5.
In July 2019 Gatsby released a new publication, which aims to inspire Careers Leaders, teachers and all those working with young people with special educational needs and disabilities to use the Gatsby Benchmarks to create a strong career guidance programme for each and every young person.
Gatsby has supported a project at the University of Huddersfield to research and support subject-specialist pedagogy for Initial Teacher Education in FE. This report sets out the need for work in this area, and summarises and evaluates the project.
