Debate
Further Education (Initial Teacher Training) Regulations 2026Contribution
I further reassure noble Lords that the curriculum guidance published alongside this instrument will require all trainees to provide clear and impartial advice on progression pathways, preparing students for the transition into employment using specialist input where appropriate. There has not been enough emphasis on clear routes of progression and pathways, and we can do far more, including integrating careers information, which is another aspect that seems to have been neglected over several years. Again, this is a unique opportunity to have the level of experience that is coming into colleges in helping with preparation for work.
