Speaking in the House of Lords on 21 November 2024

Debate

Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (Transfer of Functions etc) Bill [HL]

Contribution

It would be useful to understand in the medium term any changes to the role of Ofqual that the Government anticipate in the area of technical education accreditation. More broadly, we are interested in the Government’s views on the number of bodies involved in different aspects of technical education accreditation and their respective roles. I know I am surrounded by various world experts on the subject, but I think I am right saying that, currently, Ofqual, IfATE and the DfE are all involved with T-levels, which might in part explain some of the glitches in delivery that we saw in relation to the health and social care T-level a couple of years ago.
