Labour — Redditch

Speaking in the House of Commons on 3 February 2026

Debate

Educational Outcomes: Disadvantaged Boys and Young Men

Contribution

Redditch was a town built on unionised workers, needle making, aerospace and engineering, and that heritage matters. Too many boys now leaving schools in my area leave without a clear vocational route into decent jobs. Does my hon. Friend believe that the industrial and skills strategies should be place based, with apprenticeships funding, employer-college partnerships and union involvement, so that education in towns such as Redditch can lead directly to rewarding jobs?
