We believe that education should create a link to the workplace and further education. It is important that young people are encouraged to be ambitious:
- There should be links with universities through encouraging university students to come to the schools and talk about their experience
- There should be more vocational training to provide for young people of all abilities – perhaps training to help them get jobs
