Towards an Integrated Technical Education City Region

We have a simple but bold vision for Greater Manchester: a fairer, more equal city-region with all of our residents able to realise their potential and enjoy a good life. We know that to achieve this we have to start with young people, creating the conditions for them to thrive and providing them with a clear pathway through options in their teens and onward into adulthood.

For young people who plan to go to university, those who advise them, and those who go on to employ them, there is a clear and well-understood path laid out before them. We have heard from our residents and businesses that the same clarity is not available to those who want technical qualifications and there is strong support for our proposals to create two equal pathways.
