The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how Technical Excellence colleges will differ from the Institutes of Technologies programme.

Answered by Janet Daby

Technical Excellence Colleges will support a focus on higher technical skills and link to local growth plans. These colleges will work with businesses, trade unions and local government to provide young people and adults with better job opportunities and the highly trained workforce that local economies need.

The department will be setting out further details on Technical Excellence Colleges in due course.
