I spoke in the Skills and Post-16 Education Bill (Remaining Stages) when it came for debate in the House this week - please watch the attached video for full details.
As a Further Education Ambassador, I am especially pleased that our Government recognises and is backing the importance of skills and colleges in our communities.
I have had many conversations locally with constituents, parents and students and work closely with SGS College.
We are very fortunate in and around Stroud to have so many brilliant Further Education providers and my thanks go out to them all for their ongoing hard work!
