Edge, an independent, politically impartial foundation, inspires the education system to give all young people the knowledge, skills and behaviour to flourish. In February 2024, Edge surveyed over 2,000 adults across England to gather views on the education system, the technical and vocational pathways that are available, and what changes they would like to see for 16-18 year olds.
One of the key findings was that technical and vocational pathways are perceived to be better preparation for life after school or college; 88% of people believe education should focus more on teaching young people skills that will be useful for the workplace and 81% think that technical and vocational qualifications should be equally as respected as ‘academic’ ones.
