Written Question
Employment
Tuesday 11th February 2020

Asked by: Jo Gideon (Conservative - Stoke-on-Trent Central)

Question to the HM Treasury:

What fiscal steps he is taking to help give people the skills they need for the jobs of the future.

Answered by Simon Clarke

We are increasing funding for Further Education by £400 million in 2020-21, recognising the sector’s vital role in delivering the skills people and businesses need. Funding of £2.5 billion is also available for high-quality apprenticeships this year, and our manifesto has committed £3bn for a new National Skills Fund to transform the lives of people who lack qualifications, are keen to return to work, or want to switch careers.
