The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan began the build up to next year’s devolution of adult education funding with the release of an Adult Education and Skills Strategy for London promising among other things to create an all-through careers service, a review of post-16 SEND provision and a high-quality apprenticeship system. Focusing on three primary objectives of empowering Londoners to access education, meeting the needs of the City’s economy and deliver a strategic technical and adult education offer, the Skills Strategy has a sharp focus on outcomes rather than qualifications.
